Agreed.

I wasn't a fan either. Before INMusic 2018 i tried to listen to setlist songs, but didn't get the fuss about him, while everyone was so excited. But than 🙌, he is genius on stage. One of the best gigs i've been to, looking forward to 2022 to see him again.

These are just the first names. 😉 Curious about which names you'd like to see. Hoping for Tyler the Creator, his last album is one of the best albums of the year and his recent shows (like his Lollapalooza set) look really great.

Personal taste aside, why?

And I for one welcome our new @sisco overlord.

@Sziget2022_Leaks I would love a game. Please give us something 🤤

DM replacing Macca. Billie replacing Taylor. What next? Goldie looking chain replacing Kendrick?

This is a normal firat batch of names announement. I would recommend the festival to anyone, superb festival. Number 2 in my top 3 fests.

New for Roskilde: Dua Lipa, Tyler The Creator, Haim, St. Vincent, Arlo Parks, IDLES, Fontaines D.C., Converge, Kelly Lee Owens, Moses Sumney, Lingua Ignota, Black Pumas... All welcome for RW.

Yeah, well, Limp Bizkit are just Deftones for people who can't face reality.

After seeing nick cave perform at festivals since the late 90's I strongly disagree. I would class his Glastonbury 1998 sub headliner slot for pulp one my fave ever sets. But I'm on a losing discussion on this one. 😍

The dates cancelled by Faith No More were only in September/October in the US. About 2 weeks after the announcement, they've been added to Graspop. Until now, I think they'll play in Europe next Summer. At least until any update from the band. And for the rest of the tour, I hope some more names soon too as I'm thinking about taking a combo ticket!

That “is” really makes my shit itch.

Was at a football game recently and folk travelling from outside Scotland just had proof of double vax and ID Wasn’t an issue, I’ve got the QR code on an app and a paper copy. Can’t see you having any problems Of course it would make common sense if we had a UK approach to this and would save a lot of bother

Music? It doesn't get more musical than this.

Thank you very much

Ha, sorry! We worked together so able to confirm with confidence. Neil has had some info previously from me. Quick pretend I didn’t say anything! Lol

Not yet. But he usually leaves it until late in the year. Roskilde announced today and had a few headliner gaps.

New album Ants From Up There out February 4.

If Ole gets sacked soon, maybe Man Utd could hire Bruce if they are looking for an ex player? Frank Lampard for newcastle manager would be hilarious if he gets them relegated.

Dua has the best team in the business - she's not really established herself as a live or touring force yet so accepting Other headliner on an off cycle year, and then Pyramid headliner in a couple of years time after her next album, is a really nice move.

This is not the lineup, this is a first namedrop. Kelly Lee Owens and Moses Sumney are the pearls for me, so far.

Not my first back but saw MarthaGunn last night in Newcastle, really enjoyed it. It was small crowd in a small venue - the singer mentioned that they'd heard from people that had bought tickets and then got a cancellation email saying it was off - but everyone there seemed to enjoy it. I bought something off the merch table and the guy out of the band who was serving asked me out of curiosity how I'd heard of them and I said they had quite the following on efestivals and he was pleased with that!

Surprised Volt and balaton sound haven't announced yet, especially as they are earlier in the year.

They had very few songs you'd actually characterise as "rap-rock" nu-metal. Although Back To School is arguably their best song. The only reason they've been stuck with the nu-metal label is because of the time they broke through. Lots of quite diverse bands got stuck with it around 2000-2003.

Feed us Tyler. Other stage headliner please x

It's obvious it's not their choice. Why would they choose to do something that delays people getting inside? Some people really are short on brain power.

No, as long as you've emailed I'll have done it / will do it. I'll make the spreadsheet viewable again soon so everyone can check over it too.

Many of them make sense ^^ Ok my turn to play : Stromae / Marina Nick Cave / Placebo Calvin Harris / A$AP Rocky Lady Gaga (or Dua Lipa) / Lewis Capaldi Imagine Dragons / Stormzy Biffy Clyro / Major Lazer (snif.. 😢 ) +, I still think that a COLDPLAY big surprise is possible... Sziget HAS to have a big name, to "challenge" Glastonbury lol..

Babybelend?

Same here, I've tried Nick Cave ( 2 albums + some singles) 'cause I know how talented the man is ! ... but I just can't. I strongly believe he is made for inside shows, not for festivals. I can answer to that ^^ : in 2014, Stromae just released a great album, HUGE success in Belgium and France . But after a drug treatment for malaria in 2015, he got very sick (could have died) and disappeared for a long time. He's better since 2017, but prefers to work "in the shadows", for other artists notably. I think you can consider his "headline" status because it's a kind of come back, + he "left" while he was at the top. (I can also tell you he cost 500.000€, according to promoters)

I reckon a normal year for 2022 festivals, so mid January. I'm actually kinda pumped because I only need to do two more Oxfam ones next year to ensure I can qualify for priority through to 2029 with just one festival a year. So Glastonbury if I don't get regular tickets.

That poster makes me angry, why is it so horribly unreadable?😡

Hot Chip are not going to win, nothing to see here. If you really like another band, downvote somebody other that Hot Chip. Hot Chip will not break your legs, nor put you down. They won't snap off your head either.

Maga Bay doing CHVRCHES better than they have managed since their debut....

I saw La Luz supporting King Giz Liz Wiz a couple of years back. They were great.

We were in a car for EFNY, cult film. We were shattered though - ate some chilli loaded fries in there, smoked a j, nearly fell asleep then headed off to bed. My all time favourite moment would be on Sunday 24th June, 2017 somewhere between 2am and 7am. We'd gone from the Foos to the spider, then wandered over to Shangri La where I started coming up watching London Elektricity Big Band (not that I knew who it was at the time) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3DbCqxs8TQ. Somehow we ended up walking from there over to the Park where my mate decided to call it a night, so Mrs B and I arranged to meet my brother-in-law's brother and his mates as they came back from Cineramageddon. The night was serendipitous from there on in. We found some floor booze - a litre and a half of Morgan's Spiced. We found some floor drugs - about a gram of mandy. We found floor clothes - a parrot fancy dress outfit, some very camp cowboy hats and some Latin American looking gear. In a fine mood due to our newly acquired swag, we marched back to the SE corner and ended up at Genosys until the sun came up - it was somewhere here, feeling absolutely euphoric, that I fell hard, properly hard, for the festival. It was joyous and we shared the moment, 8 of us all feeling the same things at the same time. The lineup poster now tells me we were enjoying the delights of Cab Drivers and Steffi and Virginia. We walked back through the Stone Circle to Worthy View, where I had to visit the bogs for an early morning disco shit and spent 15 minutes sat in a posh turdis smiling my head off.

Been a busy week! Already mentioned a couple on here, but both MarthaGunn and The Lathums were really good last week. Last Monday was MarthaGunn. They're one of those bands that sound pretty much the same live as they do on record. For some people that's not always a bonus, but for the style of music they play I thought it worked really well. Small venue but as Brighton's where they started out it was a nice homecoming show for them, and as I only caught part of their set at Beautiful Days it was great to see a full show. Was a last minute chance to see them so wasn't there in time for the support sadly. @Gilgamesh69 did you go see them in the end? Tuesday was The Lathums supported by The Stanleys. Never heard of them before but Stanleys are another Wigan band, part of this NW guitar revival that seems to be going on. Guitarist was straight out of the John Squire playbook, and singer was a blend of Tim Burgess and Ian Brown, but with a more powerful voice. Decent enough, but not going to rush to see them again. Lathums were bloody brilliant. They just looked so happy to be where they are, and you can see how made up they are to have that #1 album. Musically they're really tight, great singalong anthems and Alex's voice is spot on live, even on the high notes he hits. Top night. Last night was Red Rum Club supported by Hushtones. Hushtones are another band I'd never heard of, but really glad I made it in time to see them. 5 piece drea-psych-indie-pop type from Liverpool. Live they reminded me a bit of Echobelly, but with synths added in. Some really nice harmonies across the band and mixed female / male lead vocals that work really well. In terms of current bands they made me think of Hadda Be and maybe a bit of Jetstream Pony. Red Rum Club are just fantastic. Got a ticket as @Gnomicide has been beating the drum for them as a live act on here, and he's absolutely right. Just great fun live, big singalongs and loads of energy. Crowd were well into it, but not that well known in Brighton so was only a small venue. Will definitely be making a beeline for them anytime they're in the area again Slow Readers Club tonight and then I've got a week off! 😄

I should've had that policy on here

This is like debating what the cooks in a Toby Carvery will do next.

The Magdalena Bay album is amazing. Synth pop perfection. Jessie Ware meets Grimes meets Kero Kero Bonito.

Cheers. If my numbers come up, I’ll drag you along with us 🙂

The new Shannon Lay album is a lovely listen on a sunny autumn morning. Beautiful album. Will be getting a lot of listens from me I think.
