With a series of rather directly sobriquetted stages, including the Forest Stage and the Offensive Stage, it’s a pretty unquestionable line-up as far as indie/alt tastes range, from Dinosaur Jr. to Matmos to the Horrors to The Fall to A Hawk and a Hacksaw, with the Germans represented by Lali Puna and Mouse on Mars. I could go on: Damon and Naomi, Anti-Pop Consortium, Bear in Heaven…it’s a thorough sorting of your subconscious. And yes, there shall be many Polish acts, hopefully the sort that come from the forests.
There’s also a concurrent film festival with a music film section, including Wayne Coyne’s hard-to-catch-on-a-real-screen Christmas on Mars (and Coyne’s Flaming Lips will be at the fest), as well as audio engineering workshops for that ostalgic feel. The whole thing is €30 – pretty solid.
