Young Marble Giants for ATP: The Fans Strike Back

Two more acts have been added to All Tomorrows Parties - The Fans Strike Back, where the fans get to curate half the line-up for the event which happens at Butlins Resort, Minehead, Somerset from Friday 9th until Sunday 11th May 2009.

Welsh three piece post-punk group Young Marble Giants who reunited last year reunited for their first live show in 27 years will be playing their 15-song album 'Colossal Youth'.

Also added to the line-up are Anti-Pop Consortium who are widely regarded as cutting edge innovators in hip-hop, poetry, experimental electronica, and indie rock.

Half of the line-up for this festival will be chosen by ATP while the other half gets voted for by everyone that buys a ticket. Making things a little more interesting, for the first round of voting at least (which opens on Monday 17th November), no bands can be picked that have ever played a UK ATP event before.

The previously confirmed acts, chosen by ATP are Devo, Sleep, Spritualised, and Grails.

Tickets are on sale priced at £150 per person, with bookings taken per room or chalet. To buy click here.
