In the magazine Spring 2011

Featuring Noah And The Whale, Elbow, Bright Eyes, Metronomy, Patrick Wolf, Those Dancing Days & more...

Spring 2011 Sound the klaxon, it's the FIRST EVER ISSUE OF DIY! In our pilot edition you'll find...

"Don't bore us, get to the chorus." - Noah And The Whale were supposedly 'nu-folk', with their happy disposition and Top Ten single. Then they were a bit miserable, penning an album about break-ups - always a cheery subject. Now they're POP, with capital letters, great big hooks and an album that demands attention. We find out why they've embraced immediacy.

Elsewhere we've got chin wags with Bright Eyes, returning Mercury winners Elbow, and Swedish popstrels Those Dancing Days. There's 60 seconds with new Queen of the Charts Katy B, a cutting chat with Young Knives, and a heart to heart with Patrick Wolf.

And none of that includes some suave snaps of Trophy Wife, a few words with Dutch Uncles, our guide to Manchester, or introductions to fresh blood Braids, Austra and Kyla La Grange. Oh, and you can grab a free mixtape with 12 brilliant tracks too.

Add to that a whole raft of reviews, Andrew WK and Olly Murs (yes, Andrew WK and Olly Murs) take on the hottest singles, and the latest from the worlds of film, games, style and tech and we're pretty sure you won't get more bang for your buck anywhere else.

Did we mention we're free?
