They were first announcement for NOS this year and that didn’t go too badly. And they were brilliant 

Don't get me wrong, they're a decent band but size wise you'd expect bigger as a first announcement going off the bands they've had at the top of the bill since it's started.

Have they been confirmed as a headliner?

Assuming there's a crossover with NOS, The National, The Cure and Bon Iver would be a decent day's festivalling tbf

If that's the case maybe they put off announcing the Cure first as there's a gazillion festivals that has already announced them. This'll be the Nationals first gig announced for 2019

Well there are way worse options out there tbh, they are at least a decent band.  On the other side I do not think of them as some massive headliner band.

If you look at the 2018 tab on there they have 12 bands listed as headliners including Massive Attack and Dua Lipa, so I wouldn’t read too much into it just yet.

Would seem strange for them not to coheadline, but if it’s as strong as last years maybe they could be sub/third down.

Surprised really, I thought the SWB tour had finished. I definitely think they'll be playing Latitude

They're planning a release for next year, I guess?

[birchtree29]

The National is a good band but I honestly think that the National is not a band that should be announced by three hints a week earlier. They have already attended Nos Alive, Primavera, Best Kept Secret, Lollapalooza Berlin and many more. I hope the hints continue today like last year so that we will learn 3 artists before the weekend.

Do y'all think Mad Cool will tease another announcement in 40 minutes? It's a bit odd they start hinting at another announcement only 2 hours after the first one.

They played Latitude in 2016. Looks like the headliners this year are George Ezra, Lana Del Rey and Snow Patrol.

I expect The National to play there, so this could be them, don´t know if they are tomorrow's announcement though.

New calculation hint. It adds up to 2002.

Alt J played in 2015 and 2018. If it wasn't for those rumours I would have said they could have played.

LCD Soundsystem. 

[jonnytee1]

It will be Editors - formed 2002 and if it is, The National and Editors are not exactly floating my boat

You missed the last part of the calculation. Unless it's the 1975 and a band called '27'.

I think I'm right.

[JSmurphy]

Yeah I thought Editors.

[birchtree29]

According to Wikipedia these are the bands that are formed in 2002. I eliminated the ones that are not on tour or more towards pop like One Republic

• Editors
• The 1975
• LCD Soundsystem
• Chromeo
• Grizzly Bear
• Razorlight
