The first wave of bands have been announced for 2025, and it's a tsunami worth diving into.

Karnivool, Melvins, Rolo Tomassi, Kylesa, Between the Buried and Me playing Colors, The Fall of Troy playing Doppelgänger and not just one, but two We Lost The Sea sets, including "the greatest post rock album ever"... Departure Songs.

Plenty to get swept away by but first, what's the issue with international bank transfers, music award bashes and agents selling you a dummy!

Curly fucking Wurly, indeed.
