For the first time ever we'll be heading off to sunnier climes and reporting from Benicassim... expect loads of photos and interviews.. for the time being though check out some of the line-up so far.
The British bands Maxïmo Park and The Horrors head the latest list of new additions to the line-up. The former will be promoting ‘Quicken the Heart’ (2009), and the latter will be giving us a taste of the new trails they have been blazing with Geoff Barrow of Portishead on their soon-to-be-released album, ‘Primary Colours’. The New York-based band The Walkmen are also on board with their latest brilliant album, ‘You & Me’ (2008). The British band Elbow will also arrive with a new release in tow, ‘The Seldom Seen Kid (2008). And we will also be seeing the Canadian artist Peaches, the personification of punk; the Swedish indie singer Lykke Li and her stirring electropop vibe; the Japanese-American Steve Aoki, an outstanding DJ and producer who has remixed bands like The Killers and Duran Duran, to name a few; the more than recommendable The Mighty Stef, following in the path of greats like Costello, McGowan and Johnny Thunders; the sophisticated electronic sounds of Gui Boratto; our old Demo Project friends, Klaus & Kinski. and the winners of 2009, Ratolines.
