    Is it me or has nothing really stood out this year so far? The festivals seem very poor with SLane ( both awful headliners) and The Marquee really lacking in quality

    There's been some good albums so far this year, and I'm sure there's plenty more to come:
    My Bloody Valentine - m b v
    The Joy Formidable - Wolf's Law
    Amplifier - Echo Street
    Cult of Luna - Vertikal
    Yo La Tengo - Fade
    Intronaut - Habitual Levitations (Instilling Words With Tones)
    Esben and the Witch - Wash the Sins Not Only the Face

    As regarding festivals The Body & Soul lineup looks good and the Forbidden Fruit lineup is decent enough. But compared to European festivals Irish festivals just can't compare in terms of quality and price.
