Hadent really heard of them but gave them a listen. I was wondering, their music sounds like it would go with amazing visualsand lights..

Does anyone know if there will be a show on aswell as the music?
Something like Chems ??

But yeah getting into their stuff
can see this being a good one.

i cant seem to remember any great visuals/ light show when i saw them but that was 10 years ago to be fair

they really dont need anything when they play live. just hope they bring their own soundsystem

10 years is a long time though, think of the technology we now have. If they embraced it there, it could be something seriously special.

I think they might put a more modern slant on the music throughout the set. maybe put a bit more emphasis on basslines etc, little things to make it seem a bit more modern.

it would quite dificult for them to put any more emphasis on the basslines!

I think what your saying sums up how a lot of people will be feeling about Leftfield. If anyone is unsure or never heard of them then they need to listen to their stuff and check out the live posts from Youtube and be blown away with what they can pull off. Your absolutely right, it will be completely insane!

i just heard a rumour that it's only half of leftfield playing - neil barnes but no paul daley.  any word on whether this is true or bullshit?
i'd be seriously disappointed if this were true...it'd be like booking half of orbital and billing it as a full orbital gig...

I wouldn't look too much into things like that. RockNess definitely wouldnt have signed them if there was only going to be one of them.

I don't the majority really quite realise how special this performance really will be! From a business perspective,you can completely understand where Rockness has come from here also. I know countless old time ravers from Prodigy and Underworld era/early nineties dance who are absolutely delighted with this announcement! This must have sent ticket sales through the roof! I have listened to them a while ago when I was told about 'Leftism'. Never did I expect these guys to be playing ever again!

This will be bloody special, and I quite believe that the light show will be almost as good as Chemical Bros, if not better! We shall soon see!

This post is an apology :P

I think i majorly jumped to conclusions very quickly when they were announced.

after listening to leftism and watching live vids on youtube i am probably looking forward to their set the most from the lineup so far!
