Second leg of Death Grips US tour starts a couple weeks after EOTR so looks like they are still a possibility!

HMHB is the dream!

Only just caught up with their last album and yeah, would absolutely love them on the line up. What a glorious and heartbreaking song 'slipping the escort' is.

Guess they're more likely to write a song about EOTR than play it though.

Some decent stuff here. Would really love Underground Youth to play.

I thought I was fairly up to date with newer bands but I can't recognise a good chunk of that line up!

I really enjoyed the Holodrum album this year, would love to see them in one of the tents

Most have probably just entered Play EOTR competition. I'm assuming everyone appearing at Xmas shindig will be playing at Larmer.

One of Holodrum is in Yard Act so it depends what they're doing.

I imagine there's more to come given it's not a big name list below the headliner line but I'm surprised that there's no overseas acts on the initial Manc Psych lineup given they have to sell tickets but also had so many last year some didn't even play EOTR.

White Flowers, Underground Youth, Maruja, Regressive Left would be good in my opinion. 

I'd expect Heartworms to be booked, they seem to be gaining a fair bit of traction at the moment.

Me too!  The ones I do know aren’t great though, apart from White Flowers who I like.

I saw them support Beach House but can't really remember them.

Yeah was gunna say they’re very similar to Beach House, not as good though.

What's your secret? How do you stay abreast of all this new stuff (I'm always hearing it for the first time at EOTR)

For me it's following lots of promoters on twitter. They often tweet out really small gigs. Think that's where i first came across black midi and BCNR back in the day.

My main thing is going to loads of gigs, mainly at small venues, making sure I always see all the support bands and then buying magazines such as So Young, Loud & Quiet etc.

I don't like everything I see or read about but if I do I'll follow them on bandcamp and Instagram and then check out other artists on the same labels.

Also I listen to a lot of NTS which gives me a crap load of recommendations for stuff outside of the predictable 6music sphere. 

I've seen a lot of bands who are getting bigger now play 2nd or 3rd on the bill to about 40 people at some point.

They've only done one album, give them a chance!

Yeah not hating on them at all!  Very promising band!

Just scanned the EOTR Best Of 2022 albums list, and thus as a progression from this am very much looking forward to seeing Kendrick Lamar in the Tipi in September.

I do wonder if The Smile would be a headliner actually. 

Ezra Furman seems very likely as well

[SweepingTheNation]

Panda Bear & Sonic Boom added to Canela Party.

Seems Amyl is nailed on. Who else? Sigrid? Divine Comedy?

Nailed? Really??? 

Also...First Aid Kit? Sorry for mentioning em twice this evening, but have gone down a Swedish wormhole tonight and 'tis wondrous. 

[scatteredscreens]

Not a wishlist but feel like this was a left field pick for EOTR

I find First Aid Kit dull as dishwater so hope they're not playing.

I struggle with their lyrics. With me, it's music first, lyrics second, but if the lyrics are blatantly clunky then I struggle: theirs sound like they've been translated from morse coded Swedish using the 1967 version of Google translate.
