A must for any underground music fan, The Wire reports on alternative, underground and non-mainstream musics, ‘waging war on the mundane and the mediocre.’
Chicago's DIY trio, Shellac, have been marching to the beat of their own drum for the past 30 years and are June 2024's cover stars. Inside, the band talks about refusing to chase publicity, being a part of the US post-punk scene, and the admiration of musicians who make ends meet. Other featured artists include Iceboy Violet, Robyn Steward, Zoh Amba and Arnold Dreyblatt.
