Oztix | News | Need Some Weekend Reading? The May Edition Of 'The Music' Is Out Now

The weekend is nearly here and with the cold snap that's come in, it's the perfect time to curl up on the couch and read the latest edition of The Music magazine.

Courtney Barnett has achieved more from one album than most could dream for in a lifetime. Just weeks out from releasing her second album, we thought it was more than fitting for Barnett is take out the cover of the latest edition, featuring an exclusive photo shoot by the brilliant Kane Hibberd.

This is also the first time one artist has taken out all three covers since we changed to a monthly format late last year. Assistant Editor Jessica Dale speaks with Barnett about her new album, Tell Me How You Really Feel, as well taking a look at her career so far. You can also have a sneaky read of it here.

Film and TV critic, Luke Buckmaster takes over this month's guest editorial, taking a look at the influence of The Avengers on the sci-fi genre and why James Cameron isn't too happy about it. Our Victorian Editor Bryget Chrisfield takes you to the frontline of Boxwars, and we also take a look at how to live a little bit more sustainably.

We also take a look at the importance and role of local content quotas for the Australian music industry in this month's news feature, chatting with industry key players about the topic.
