I wish them well. But I really don't think they'll ever be festival headliners. They weren't big enough when they headlined Download, even though they pulled it off and proved themselves somewhat. But now? Not a chance. I do wish them well for the new album though, they had all the potential in the world a few years back.

Just thinking that if they made 1 more album after this. Why couldnt they headline another festival? Burn burn, Last train home, Shinobi, Last summer, Kobekri, Rooftops, everyday combat, where we belong ..... much more. They have a huge set list.

I would have loved to have seen them headline R/L one day but that doesn't look likely. The new album is alright but I don't think it has anything on their older material however I think it's doing well. Bring Em' Down is always on Radio 1. Who knows though, if they manage a sub headline spot next year then maybe with one more album down the line they could do it? Unlikely I know but would love to see them get the chance. They have the setlist that's for sure and they are sick live.

The album's a grower for sure.

As a huge fan of the band I was really disapointed with it when I got it last week, but a few listens later and I'm really into it.

They won't ever headline now, but I reckon it'l probably do well enough to propel them back up to 3rd top at big festivals such as R+L and potential headliners at smaller festivals.

Off the top of my head though, this would make an ace headline setlist

because they don't have much appeal outside their own fanbase. I've been aware of them for years and only song i recognise is rooftops, that and anything else i've heard has been pretty crap (in my humble opinion)

Loving the new album, IMO they won't headline unless they are offered IOW, which i suppose is a possibility for 2013

    • 1 - Mock Media - Rat Bastard 2 - Maquina - Body Transmission 3 - Mary in the Junkyard - Role Model Hermit   Honourable mentions to The Hu - Hun, Madonna - Confessions II, and Swapmeet - Mount Zero for also being solid.   Sadly, really didn't connect with the new Yard Act, a real shame as loved their last two albums and thought this one would be a shoe-in for AOTM, but felt it was a bit too generic..

    • I always fancied going to this one - it had my sort of lineup. Shame.
