Next announcement this thursday from 7pm

[sjseabass]

It all seems very segregated now. Not a single heavy act on NME.

[Tobieski]

The Shikari sound system is a dance act that is headlining the """"rock stage"""", doesn't make a lot of sense to me

[mrtourette]

The most important thing is that none of the previously announced bands moved down, meaning that whoever the winner of the prediction game was remains the one true champion of the world.

[Areophobia]

I have to admit, if I wasn't so happy with the top 3/4 on Main each day then I would seriously pissed off. Aside from those the rest of the lineup is fairly weak.

Seem to have the "heavy day" back too.

[DMCJ2]

Sunday is quite poor for me until later in the day - Like Haim, Editors and Tribes and then it seems like a wait until NIN and Biffy/Spector - looks like I might have to watch Lumineers and Fall Out Boy

so was this really special announcement for an important band meant to happen tonight?

[mrtourette]

Peace and Deap Valley have moved down.

[mrtourette]

Wasn't that you?

[the wonderwhy]

Whoever analysed it as lacking the middle ground after the first announced (think it was Yellow) was spot on.

There remains are a lot of 'new' bands in pretty high slots and it just looks strange.

The one huge redeeming factor of the announcement is that SOAD & NIN may get a full 90 minutes each. Which would be great.

[sjseabass]

Bands on NME stage: 25.

Bands on NME stage with more than 1 studio album: 4 (Frightened Rabbit, Tame Impala, Phoenix, Tribes).

Jesus christ.

And a load of the ones that have 1, it's only just come out (or is coming out). Several don't even have 1.

I know, I'm gutted. What are they playing at?

A couple of them were right though.

[giantwagon]

I'm actually pleasantly surprised with some of those announced tonight - Frightened Rabbit, Kodaline, Tribes, Fenech-Soler, Skindred, Chapel Club and Clean Bandit are all bands I'll try and see

[Com Truise]

There a few decent bands on NME I'd say, luckily the Main stage, lock up and FR are really good for me

+ ASAP Ricky

I think the bands with under 1 studio album is a more crucial stat.

Nope, it was in reference to BRMC.
