I don't know why I even asked - I knew it'd be those two.

I really hope Foals can pull themselves out of the rut they've found themselves in with their last album or two but I'm not too hopeful. The idea of them headlining major festivals (well... Glastonbury) seems like a stretch at the moment to me.

Rite I'm bored so I've actually tried to think of 3 names that could potentially headline in 2020.

Stormzy, Arctics, MCR

If MCR haven't reformed then BMTH or Slipknot in their place.

Yeah Mountain at My Gates was just My Number II - it was even the poppy second single after the heavy first. I think they will do something new as they addressed that they’re in a rut and WWD wasn’t what they’d hoped.

I don’t think headlining Glastonbury is a stretch as there aren’t many bands ahead of them in a queue for new headliners and they’ve already used up a lot of their repeats recently too. Plus I dare say they’d be more popular a headline booking than newbies like The 1975 or Royal Blood at Glastonbury cos a large proportion of the audience grew up with them.

I think Foals have reached their peak.

agree, would be surprised if their next release warrants them to be Glastonbury headliners

Disagree if this album is a success, just depends what style they go with. Ultimately I'm probably bias as they're my favourite band but still think they haven't hit their full potential as of yet.

Got a (bad) feeling they're gonna go down the electronic/synth heavy album route that almost every indie act does at this point in their career. Foals are probably better equipped at pulling it off than a lot of others, but it's always a risky venture. At least it'd be more exciting than What Went Down aka Total Life Forever pt.2 pt.2 though.

BMTH // Arctics // BBK + Catfish

The coheadline is the one I'd be least sure on. Chance or Stormzy could replace BBK or maybe Diaclosure again or some other non-rock act that blows up (Flume?). Catfish could be replaced by any up-and-coming alt-rock act tbh: 21 Pilots,  Hunna (god forbid), Bastille, CHVRCHES, Blossoms, Liam Gallagher etc.

Plus outside chance of MCR reunion to replace the coheadline I guess

    • Early predictions for Headliners   The Front Bottoms  Bowling For Soup  Ren     
    • Considering how popular of a booking Scooter have been I think they'd go down well
    • I mean I think unless you are camped in a particular bit which apparently you just get no sleep i feel it would be better setup to travel in from a hotel each day and back. Ah there is so many downfalls to it for me, I think the Download main stage area is so much better and that's coming from me. If you're camped in green to go round all the time and out for lidl and even water is stupid!
    • Did you camp or go for a hotel? I looked into it briefly and seems easy enough to get back to Nuremberg.
