INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
The most anticipated tour of the decade hits the UK this month. We look at how the hottest rock band on the planet reformed, what we can expect from their upcoming London shows and whether we can expect any new music from the core trio of Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan. DragonForce reach into infinity with their ripping new album , Jon Schaffer returns with the next red hot instalment in the Iced Earth legacy, and we join pirate metallers Alestorm for session of ale drinking on board a ship. Also this month we interview Wednesday 13, Biters, Nad Sylvan, Secret Sphere, The Ferrymen, Cellar Darling, Stormburst, Wind Rose and amazing newcomers Blackwater Conspiracy. Plus we bring you our usual extensive round-up of the festival action coming up this summer and beyond.
