Every bank holiday weekend in August a music festival takes place in Leeds and Reading, both of which have the same line-up playing alternate days and as preciously reported, last night the line-up was finally released.

The Cure will also make a return to the festival, their first in 30 years! Paramore will play beneath them. Florence & The Machine will also play beneath Kasabian on the 3rd day.
Other artists announced in this first round include Justice, Maccabees and At The Drive in heading up the NME stage with the line-up being filled out by riff mongrels Pulled Apart By Horses who will open up main stage on the Friday at Leeds. Also filling out the bill are Cancer Bats, Crystal Castles, The Cribs, Miike Snow, The Horrors and SBTRKT. The Shins will make their return also!

[Listen] Enter Shikari - 'A Flash Flood of Colour' (Full Album Stream)
Well, the wait is over with just 4 days until the album hits the shelves, Enter Shikari have offered up a full album stream for their follow up to 2009's Common Dreads which I used to absolutely love! The new album, A Flash Flood of Colour, is another step forward for them developing their sound further towards dance whilst still keeping it heavy as F is other places. I'm not completely sold on it yet but maybe with a few more listens I will be. For now why not try A Flash Flood of Colour for yourselves below via AP.
The album drops in the UK on the 16th and the 17th in the US.
[Listen] Enter Shikari - "Arguing With Thermometers"
This morning on Radio One, Zane Lowe premiered a brand new track from Enter Shikari titled "Arguing With Thermometers" which is taken from their upcoming LP, A Flash Flood of Colour. The track is a nice preview of what's to come and has a little bit of everything you've come to expect from the foursome thrown in. Big riffs mixed in with dance and dubstep elements and a little break down too, not to mention some cheekiness from Rou. See what you make of it below and look out for a video which is expected very soon. Peep a still from that above.
[Watch] Enter Shikari - "Sssnakepit" (Official Video)
Back with a bang it's Enter Shikari with the genre bending style and energetic delivery. New track "Sssnakepit" sees the St Albans boys back up to their old tricks of combining a jungle like intro with rip roaring guitar riffs and harmonic vocals. The results are surprisingly impressive and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Midway through the energy drops for a fat ass breakdown before returning to the upbeat tempo of the verses and chorus. Worth a few minutes of your time for these boys are self made and not just that, they're doing it well. Kudos.
[Watch] Enter Shikari - "Quelle Surprise" (Video)
Yesteday evening, Zane Lowe debuted a new track from those St Albans boys Enter Shikari. The track is a little step away from what you might of come to expect from them but the messages in Rou's lyrics are ever present. With the energy and passion these boys give off it's hard not to want to get involved and throw some shapes. I like
The are currently working on new material and you can pick up this new single over on iTunes now. Give it a play up top and pick it up if you like it. These boys made it on their own label through hard work and graft. Worth a few pennies if you like the track, most definately.
