Classic Pop | June 2026
In our latest issue, cover star Kim Wilde exclusively reveals all about her three new albums on the way plus looks back on a rollercoaster life in pop.
Elsewhere, we introduce the must-hear new synth supergroup Doublespeak – aka Vince Clarke, Neil Arthur and Benge – who unveil their eponymous debut album of “vandalised” (their words not ours) covers.
The B52s’ Fred Schneider muses on 50 years of roaming around the world and Embrace frontman Danny McNamara tells us how his band are honouring their place in the legacy of British music as they release ninth studio album, Avalanche.
We also meet Midge Ure as he returns with his first all-new material in 12 years – the stunning double album A Man Of Two Worlds – and catch up with Hue And Cry’s Pat and Greg Kane who take us behind the scenes of their synth-led new album Everybody.
Meanwhile, CP revisits Echo & The Bunnymen’s Ocean Rain for our latest classic album feature and examines Kajagoogoo’s Limahl-less second LP, Islands. We also take a deep dive into the back catalogue of Lisa Stansfield for our regular Album By Album feature.
In a packed reviews section, we give our verdict on new releases including Midge Ure, Paul McCartney, Doublespeak, Hue And Cry, Suzette Charles and Dodgy. There’s also our comprehensive reissues section featuring Kraftwerk, Beastie Boys, Everything But The Girl, Vegas, Stewart Copeland and much more. In our live reviews section, we check out Gorillaz and Pet Shop Boys’ Obscure residency.
