Lineup 2014

[DarthSaul]

Saw KOL last year and didn't think they were dull at all!

[dentalplan]

I'm not sure I'd go as far as saying their 1st 3 albums were 'brilliant'. They're good but nothing overly special.

True. They even seem a bit generic when you listen back nowadays but they just come off a lot better now they've had some real shit output since.

[giantwagon]

I saw them at the Roundhouse and thought they were surprisingly good. Wouldn't pay to see them in a stadium though.

[Bisque]

They've got a few anthems, mostly the singles that everyone knows from the radio & sings along upping their live atmosphere. Apart from that they are a tad dull live & I've never seen much audience interaction if thats your thing.

[the wonderwhy]

Because of the Times is one of my favourite albums ever

[lightning1000]

I prefer haha shake heartbreak.

[The Placid Casual]

They've never done much for me

[giantwagon]

haha shake heartbreak.

Not the Alan Partridge version?

[Andre91]

Because Of The Times is also my favourite KOL album. I agree that Only By The Night and Come Around Sundown were crap. Mechanical Bull is listenable though, I quite enjoy it.

Dammit, fucking auto correct....

[giantwagon]

Only By The Night is a sick album

[The Placid Casual]

Only By The Night is a sick album

Only By The Night is a sick album

Bun off

[giantwagon]

I very much enjoyed it

[Gucci Piggy]

I dunno how many times I've said this but they were dull as fuck at Werchter.

"We've played 4 of the last 8 Rock Werchters, and there's a reason we keep coming back, and that's because you guys are amazing, and we love playing here" (or words to that effect). Well then stop standing still, leaning on your amps for 1.5 hours looking like you give less fucks than Julian Casablancas smacked off his face and put some effort in if you love it so much.

I really would probably still love them if they still put in any form of effort or "passion" at all.

[Bisque]

KoL aren't playing thank god, leave it to the IoW forums.

Anyone looking forward to any of the dance acts this year?

I reckon Breach, Gorgon City, Duke Dumont and Netsky (after giving them another chance) will be pretty good. Disclosure will be decent too.

[Bisque]

Netsky Live I've always found to be brilliant live & as a DJ. Will definitely be there instead of Paramore.

Wilkinson is good live & should be heavy. I'll be there if there are no clashes.

Andy C will be class, great alternative to Imagine Dragons/Jake Bugg.

The OH will want to see Duke Dumont & Gorgon City.

[Bisque]

Disclosure will be decent too.

Were good last year, hoping they'll bring the guest singers out again for a headlining slot.

It's a complete mood killer for anything slightly dancy

As in the crowd or the performers?

[Yellow_Fellow]

[dentalplan]

Maybe Reading is turning into a 'clap along' fest.
