A great new issue of Maggot Brain – including wide-ranging interviews with artist Raymond Pettibon and underground culture renaissance man John Waters that both go way deeper than their most iconic works – and equally deep insight-fueled pieces from cover-to-cover! Includes a look at the legacy-to-date of Detroit vocalist John Brannon from Negative Approach to the Laughing Hyenas and beyond, a photo journal on tour with noise rock lifers The Melvins, experimental pop veteran Cheri Knight, sax player & composer Patrick Shiroishi on Japanese folk-blues guitarist & visionary Kan Mikami, zine writer/publisher/outsider musician Seymour Glass and lots more. Each feature, column and article is greatly enriched by photos and illustrations, too – the visual side of Maggot Brain gets more vivid with each new issue! Magazine

This issue of Mojo looks at the 30 greatest songs by Steely Dan – a large number, but maybe not big enough – given the greatness of the group! There's also plenty of other classic features – rare photos of the Rolling Stones, and more on Marvin Gaye, The Ramones, Lenny Kravitz, and the Butthole Surfers – plus Stone Roses guitarist John Squire and the mighty Liam Gallagher! The issue also features a bonus CD with 15 tracks from famous northern bands – including James, The Fall, Magazine, Blue Orchids, Inspiral Carpets, and others – plus the usual huge section of Mojo reviews!
