And to people grumbling already, they only added Blur to last year's lineup in May. There'll be more in the bag if ticket sales are slow.

This has to be the happiest I've been at an EP announcement and I'm only just happy.

Meh, not really arsed with that first batch line up at all. Lana DEL Rey? Snooze/puke, No thanks. LCD Soundsystem is not enough to make me want to go.

TXFM goes off now, especially because John cadell is on fir the next 4 poxy hours.

Chemical Brothers, Glass Animals and Super Furry Animals are among the first acts announced for the festival haha! So much for all the talk of Radiohead, New Order, and anyone else!

Of course he was spoofing. He hadn't a clue.

Have they two more top tier acts to come?

They're too big, they will probably play their own show and MCD will make more ca$h from that

Libadour

Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats :cool: Happy with the lot so far.

Anybody got the spotify playlist made yet!?

Decent announcement. Some good names all the way down the bill.

Very happy with The Chemical Brothers, LCD Soundsystem and Todd Terje

MJohnston

For me, that's about the best initial lineup I've seen for EP - LCD ✔ Chems ✔ HAIM ✔ SFA ✔ Todd Terje ✔ Animal Collective ✔ Wild Beasts ✔ Pantha Du Prince ✔ Daniel Avery ✔

Wish Mount Kimbie were live tbh. I'll have to check out a few of the other artists too, cos I don't recognise half (and last years lineup introduced me to so many great new bands).

D.Q

How soon for a sellout with that lineup I wonder

Bobby Baccala

**** lana del ray..solid lineup though.

ghostdancer

thankfully Sam Smith last year has taken some of the sting out of the outrage for Lana Del Rey headlining....

team_actimel

Since EP have already made the poster, new acts won't be announced for a few months so. Disappointed that M83 aren't on the line-up and no decent rock band announced. Happy with The Chemical Brothers though.

scruff monkey

Really happy with that so far, plenty more to come though

Bootsy.

Yes! Very happy with that -

LCD Soundsystem, Chemical Brothers, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Nightsweats, Super Furry Animals, Ezra Furman, Haim, Savages, Todd Terje, Daniel Avery, Broken Social Scene, Phosphorescent.

That's a great line-up for me

electrobanana

Im gonna give ep a miss this year it just doesn't excite me anymore.. gonna hit Life festival before i head to the euros that will do me for the summer.

Spotify will be putting one together - they always do.

Hoping for Catfish, maybe All Tvvins and a couple of retro bands, like Belly, James etc

BUBBLES1978
