Tickets for next summer's Glastonbury Festival will go onsale in October.

As with sales for previous years, anyone wishing to buy tickets will need to register in advance in order to be able to obtain their ticket.

Muse have unveiled the trailer for their new studio album, which looks set to be titled The 2nd Law. To watch the trailer, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click.
The trailer features a compilation of news footage over a musical backdrop, which initially begins as an ornate, classical piece in the style of track's like "Butterflies & Hurricanes" before morphing into a full-on dubstep track.
The trailer ends with the words 'The 2nd Law' and 'September 2012' being shown as the music fades out.

The new April issue of Uncut, out now, features David Bowie peering from the cover in his guise as sleazy space-star Ziggy Stardust. To celebrate this look at Bowie’s greatest creation 40 years on, here’s a fantastic piece from Uncut’s 18th issue, in November 1998, in which Chris Roberts looks back at the glammed-up, transgressive superstars who changed his adolescent world.
