It\u2019s inextricable, and that\u2019s very, very intense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/the-cover\/piss-12-10-2026-3972908\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Piss\u2019 full <em>Cover<\/em> story here<\/a> and find out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/the-cover\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">who else has been on <em>The Cover<\/em>\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, <em>NME<\/em> produces 50 Cover stories, showcasing the future of music via in-depth profiles and exclusive photoshoots.
