In his feelings
The November issue
Four covers, a frankly ridiculous amount of new music and some very big feelings. Dork's November 2026 issue is here, with Nieve Ella, Jamie T, Rachel Chinouriri and Remi Wolf each getting their own cover, and plenty to talk about.

Reviews
Staking their claim to be the best band of their generation.
'Sugar Rush' captures a young band at precisely the point where enthusiasm, confidence and a lot of gigging have started feeding into each other. It's messy, urgent and ridiculously alive.
Words: Harry Shaw
‘PREMATURE NOSTALGIA’ throws a lot at you, and nearly all of it works. Green has made grief, longing and overthinking tremendous fun. It's easily one of the month's best.
Words: Felicity Newton
Love is unexpectedly sympathetic over the dark synths of 'Call It What You Want', and he's an engaging presence when he eases off.
Words: Dan Harrison
Closer 'I Wish' is, as is tradition on her albums, a lullaby to her younger self, on which she reflects on pulling through a hard time alone.
Words: Minty Slater Mearns
And, well, that's basically it.
Words: Harry Shaw
Very good work. Gold star. Well done, SOFY.
