Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, James Blake, Miguel, Suicidal Tendencies, Turbonegro and about 80 other artists join the line-up.
\nRoskilde Festival\u2019s 43rd line-up has just seen the light of day. About 85 new artists join the nearly 100 already announced, unveiling a multicoloured music catalogue of countless genres, nationalities and moods. \u201cAs always, we are ambitious on our audience\u2019s behalf, and eager to cross their musical boundaries. At the same time we have a variety of stars to secure the collective, unifying concert experience, \u201c says Music Director Rikke \u00d8xner. <\/p>\n

A variation of headliners
\nKRAFTWERK, THE NATIONAL, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, RIHANNA, SIGUR R\u00d3S, SLIPKNOT and VOLBEAT are at top of the poster. The headliners cover genres such as rock, pop and futuristic electro. However, these artists are just the icing on the cake. Whether you\u2019re a fan of hip hop, metal, alternative rock or world music, you can put together a music feast of your liking \u2013 while stumbling upon surprises and musical challenges along your journey. <\/p>\n

Rockers with an edge
\nWe introduce a batch of rock artists with more edge to their music than seen or heard on Roskilde Festival for a long time. AIRBOURNE, TURBONEGRO, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES and BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB are among today\u2019s new additions; and all have fresh records out, demonstrating great shape and chops. Along with UNCLE ACID & THE DEADBEATS, KVELERTAK and THE SWORD, these artists secure a festival with plenty of riffs and licks. \u201cThis year\u2019s lineup is actually the most rock-orientated in my time as a booker. I strongly sense a blooming of rock these years, and we feature some great exponents of this development on the line-up\u201d, says booker Stefan Gejsing. <\/p>\n

\u2026 always a surprise
\nSwedish pop collective INGRID are planning a special Roskilde show, including songs from LYKKE LI, PETER BJORN AND JOHN, MIIKE SNOW, COCO and J. \u00c5HLUND, who will take the stage with several surprising guests. This array of stellar names has only played two intimate club shows in the past, so they\u2019re heading for a spectacular world premiere in the large format of Roskilde Festival\u2019s Orange Stage this summer. This exciting new collective will only be playing two concerts worldwide in 2013. <\/p>\n

Outrageous urban sounds
\nFuture superstar MIGUEL is among today\u2019s brand new additions to the line-up with his sexy R&B. We can also announce EL-P, KILLER MIKE and flamboyant rapper MYKKI BLANCO, joining KENDRICK LAMAR, DANNY BROWN, JOEY BADA$$, FLATBUSH ZOMBIES and ACTION BRONSON. Roskilde Festival 2013 is mandatory for anyone with even the smallest taste for hip hop. The Nordic countries also boost names such as CHORDS, KARPE DIEM and LINKOBAN. <\/p>\n

Sparkling world colours
\nAs always, Cosmopol and the other stages will feature world colours unlike any other festival in Scandinavia or Europe: \u201cIt\u2019s our world music acts who really push tradition forward. This year features acts from both South Korea, China and Egypt,\u201d says booker of global acts Peter Hvalkof. DAWANGGANG, NUBANOUR, KRAR COLLECTIVE and several other names from foreign skies are also part of today\u2019s line-up. <\/p>\n

Roskilde is ugly
\nRoskilde Festival\u2019s alternative rock profile rips, shreds and tears like never before. PISSED JEANS, FIDLAR, ICEAGE, PARQUET COURTS and METZ add more punk edge to a program which also features Sonic Youth legend Thurston Moore\u2019s brand new band CHELSEA LIGHT MOVING. <\/p>\n

#futurebeats
\nWe are witnessing a true internet generation taking to the stage. Their music is a total meltdown of genres, styles and eras. Take JAMES BLAKE for instance: He is back at Roskilde, ready to repeat his 2011 triumph. Trap- phenomenon \u01b1Z is also among today\u2019s new , and another trap icon, BAAUER, was already part of the line-up. Another notorious internet regular is AZEALIA BANKS; her name is on the poster alongside ELOQ, FLUME and several other online idols.<\/p>\n

A full festival ticket costs DKK 1890 (approx. EUR 254). A full festival ticket gives access to eight days of experiences and up to 200 music acts. Tickets are sold through Billetlugen.\"Roskilde<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
