It is very much múm week here on DiS. So, it is with great pleasure and delight that we announce to you that they've been added to the 10 Years Of ATP Festival, along with Lightning Bolt, Porn, The Magic Band, Tall Firs, Edan and Om.
In addition to all of that, it is now confirmed that doom-rockers Sunn O))) will be playing not once, but TWICE, my friends. One time they'll be playing stuff from The Grimmrobe Demos, and the other time it's work from their acclaimed current long player Monoliths & Dimensions. Exciting times.
That leaves the line up so far looking like this:
Yeah Yeah Yeahs Modest Mouse The Breeders Explosions in the Sky Battles Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks Dirty Three Tortoise Shellac Melvins Mudhoney J Mascis and the Fog The Magic Band The For Carnation Papa M Sunn O))) performing The GrimmRobe Demos and Monoliths & Dimensions OM múm Lightning Bolt Edan Tall Firs Deerhoof The Drones Sleepy Sun Bardo Pond F*ck Buttons APSE Alexander Tucker and Decomposed Orchestra Porn
Which, I'm sure you'll agree, is a full-on 9 on 10 rating. Perhaps a little bit higher.
The weekend takes place the weekend after the My Bloody Valentine curated Nightmare Before Christmas, on the same site at Butlins, Minehead. That's December 11-13, 2009.
