Looking for bands like......

[Glasgowbhoy]

I like bands like The Rapture, LCD, Cut Copy, Presets, !!! and more recently Friendly fires who are alright.

As the FF are the only really likely Glastonbury appearance then who else should I be looking out for this year?

Passion Pit - 80s/dance influence, flasetto vocals.

Cut Copy and The Presets both played last year. So... maybe.

For 80s influence, The Long Blondes perhaps?

[Roger Explosion]

Midnight Juggernauts

[robith]

Hard to tell at the moment as the line up hasn't been announced. Check back at the end of May and you'll be able to get a better feel.

Also, to however listed Grammatics - am I missing something? I think they're utter tosh

[robith]

Also check out the Mae Shi and Holy f**k

Oh and Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, Deerhunter and The Death Set

F*ckbuttons!

I can't stand em but lots of people I know who like similar stuff to you seem to rate em.

[vicky=)]

Peaches!

[When Jokers Attack]

Infadels

[Dukeicon]

nice one. quite a few in there I know, quite a few I need to check out.

Sunshine Underground- Hope they play this year. Great wee band!

[mattmattmatt]

Not really a fan, but arent Empire of The Sun rumored? From what ive heard they may fall into that catogory.

[scappaflow]

Ladyhawke for sure.

Also Black Kids.

Think Ladyhawke is on the list. Don't know if Black Kids are - and they did play last year, but hopefully a decent chance of them being back.

Electro Pop Fever!!

Unfortunately the Presets wont be back in he UK this summer for Glasto....

Just got an email from their booking guys

[Glitter+Vodka]

Not buying them at all, sound like a poor imitation of MGMT.
