1. PRIMUS 3D!!!!!! 2. Cake 3. Empire of the Sun 4. Azealia Banks 5. Grimes 6. Vampire Weekend 7. Devendra Banhart 8. Alt-J 9. Divine Fits 10. Menomena
I haven't done my due diligence with line-up research yet -- which includes listening to Sigur Ros, who I've never actually listened to before -- so this may change drastically by the time the fest rolls 'round. Except for #1 'cause PRIMUS 3D!!!

Coming from someone that has seen The xx I'd advise you skip their set unless you don't mind falling asleep. Maybe they've somehow put a pulse into their live shows since they were at Sasquatch 2010 but I wouldn't count on it. Probably the most boring live band I've ever seen.

I liked their first album, but I saw them recently and it was just so... dull.

I saw them at SoDo and they were fine, but I'm kinda doubtful about their festival presence. They are a band that needs to be seen in a club, when you're feeling moody.

I saw a live stream of them playing in an old church cathedral a couple of years ago and it looked and sounded really gorgeous. Their Bigfoot stage set later that Spring was pretty much the opposite of experience of that in every way.

A dark club is their environment, not outside during daylight hours. They're higher up the bill this time so maybe they'll play after dark headlining Bigfoot or something, but I think the daylight was the only thing that kept me from dozing off during that 2010 Bigfoot set. edit: I see they're billed 6th on the lineup which probably means they're sub-headlining on the Sasquatch stage, I bet they'll be opening for Sigur Ros. They might be a decent sunset band, but I still don't think I'd see them again.
