Gonna keep my faith

[Hart Attack]

Well, four out of eighteen for me so far. Metallica, Royal Blood, Pierce The Veil and Refused. Major pressure on the next announcement to deliver a LOT of rock/metal/punk acts if they want my money this year. Absolutely shocking how little there is for me at the moment, especially given the lack of competition from Sonisphere this year.

[kingcrawler]

Kaiser Chiefs were announced for some weird thing in the highlands last week...don't see why M&S would play something small enough for the Kaiser Chiefs to headline but you never know

Nah Mumfords are far too big for that

[dentalplan]

I need to admit defeat to those I argued with about Mumfords and Bastille being unsuitable for R+L before I forget.

Why else make the statement? What else is in Scotland?

glasgow summer sessions for Mumford I reckon

Queens were exclusive but did a scottish gig.

This seems about right from what's said...

MUMFORDS, (Alt-J?), Bastille

METALLICA, (?), Royal Blood

LIBERTINES, (?), Jamie T

NME headliners something like Deadmau5, Knife Party and Rebel Sound and one of the latter two is a closer set. For Peace.

Mumford and sons, Alt J, Bastille

Metallica, Royal Blood, Deftones

Libertines, The Vaccines, Jamie T

Yeah, you would have thought that the second announcement would have had at least one metal band to tie in with Metallica, and the fact we have no Soni this year, whilst Download isn't exactly the heaviest it's been in a while.

[Yellow_Fellow]

there wasn't any hip hop in that announcement and that makes me sad and confused, to be honest

I'd have imagined that the lack of rock/metal/punk acts announced was as a result of Mumford being announced as the headliner as the other announcement was the exact opposite as it had more of those acts you and I want

They're saving Death Grips for the main announcement

[Rose-Colored Boy]

M&S, TDCC, Bastille

Metallica, Alt-J, Royal Blood

Libertines, The Vaccines, Jamie T

[dentalplan]

Mumford and sons, Alt J, Bastille

Metallica, Royal Blood, Deftones

Libertines, The Vaccines, Jamie T

Royal Blood are third down according to the show. Agree about Vaccines though. It is quite strong but imagine looking at this lineup five years ago.

Edit: I think Frank Turner will sub now as, if those slots are all taken there isn't anywhere else for him to go is there?

[DGrant261]

DeafMau5, Knife Party, Rebel Sound. Would be the worst/least NMEish set of headliners ever. I can't see rebel sound headlining any stage other than 1Extra.

Edit; Has Jamie T actually been confirmed for 3rd? I'd prefer him to play NME and allow Frank/BMTH/Maccabees to play 3rd

Royal blood were announced 3rd Metallica day.

Maybe this means Paolo or Ed Sheeran is one of the subs

[Mouseboy11]

I kind of feel like they should bring back one whole announcement. It's better than three underwhelming ones

[bradeck123]

going smoking a 20 deck to de-stress me from this announcement, fuming

[justanothername]

When is Alan gonna come online to do a gazza?

When did Queens do a Scottish gig? The only one they've done recently was on the arena tour in 2013.

[Andre91]

Mumford and Sons

Alt-J

Bastille

Deadmau5

Metallica

Bring Me The Horizon

Royal Blood

Peace

The Libertines

The Vaccines

Jamie T

??? (Interpol?)

[#FreeComTruise]

Maybe this means Paolo or Ed Sheeran is one of the subs

If it were the case I'd go

Mumford, Paolo Nutini, Bastille

Metallica, BMTH, Royal Blood

Libertines, Frank Turner, Jamie T

NME headline?

[dentalplan]

NME headline?

Then he'd be headlining NME while playing bigger venues than probably any of the acts besides headliners. Would be odd.

[justanothername]

Given this latest announcement I'd take Frank Turner subbing easily

[conroy17]

apparently its

Mumfords - ??? - Bastille

Libertines - ??? - Jamie T

Metallica - ??? - Royal Blood

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Rebel Sound are headlining the NME stage
