Issue #318 (Stars of 2026 - Panic! At The Disco): Digital Edition

Panic! At The Disco return to the cover of Rock Sound as they mark 20 years of their debut album ‘A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out’.

More than any other album of its era, ‘A Fever…’ pushed the boundaries of what this scene could look and sound like, unafraid to embrace a wide musical palette and take risks where needed to create a truly original collection that forced you to sit up and pay attention. As they prepare to release a deluxe reissue of the record, we celebrate Panic!'s iconic, multi-platinum debut with never before seen photos from the band's 2006 Rock Sound cover shoot, unearthed interviews from the magazine archive and a new conversation with producer Matt Squire, taking you behind the scenes of the making of a modern classic.

Also inside:

• In a brand-new cover interview, 5 Seconds Of Summer reflect on their journey that brought them here;
• Rising UK outfit South Arcade set out their ambitious plans for another 12 months of mayhem;
• Imminence have gone from underground heroes to one of modern metalcore’s most intense and exhilarating assets, and now reveal all;
  
• New Zealand’s Balu Brigada arrived with a big impact in 2025. Now, brothers Henry and Pierre Beasley look to the future, with their biggest UK shows fast approaching;
• With latest album ‘Creature In The Black Night’ propelling them to bigger and bolder places, Dayseeker Rory Rodriguez reflects on what the band means to him in 2026.
