A gleaming set of new acts have been unveiled for this year’s Latitude festival in Henham Park, Suffolk.
The fantastic Crystal Castles will be there, bleeping and fizzing their way through a set in the Sunrise Arena, while Foals and British Sea Power join the bill in the Obelisk Arena, (headlined by Interpol, Franz Ferdinand and Sigur Ros).
Blondie will also play the event, which runs from the 17th ‘til the 20th of July, performing in the Uncut Arena.
Weekend tickets for Latitude are retailing at £130 plus whatever bastard booking fees the sharks decide to pile on top, while single day tickets cost £55 plus booking fees.

NOT BLOOD OKKERVIL RIVER THOUGH, IS IT?
HUH? HUH?
woop woop
very glad im going.
You do realise
that Okkeril River can play Latitude as well as Truck don't you.
Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this!
i don't know
truck seem to like getting exclusives with their big names :(
When they announced Lemonheads,
they made a big deal about it being exclusive, and they haven't mentioned it at all with Okkervil River.
Me too.
Every time they announce a sprinkle of new bands, there's always ones I want to see. This is great!
Agreed
It just keeps getting better. The only problem is going to be bands you like clashing at this rate.
"In a surprise move,
all of Latitude's bands are going to play at the same time, across 200 stages!"
what days?!?!?!?
what days what days? i need to know man, i'm only going on the saturday...
