I'm particularly excited about Boris, Om, Oneida, Earth, and Thurston Moore. Boris are probably my favourite band at the moment, as I just saw them live and they were all like MINDBLOWING!

As well as those 5, I'm down with Portishead and Aphex Twin (will both be nice n chill, and interetsing live), Sparklehorse (not a big fan but decent), Black Mountain (fuzzy kraut influenced, if i remember right), and Autolux (good shoegazer band).

I'll be checking out A Hawk and a Hacksaw too - I believe it features ex-member(s?) of Neutral Milk Hotel which is nice.

And with loads more to be added, hell yes!

Yeah it looks good. Portishead and a new album finally? Thurston Moore's new album is good from what i've heard so far. Boards of Canada need to be presuaded to play their first live set since 2001's ATP festival, that would be class.
