NME-Europe Live: SOS 4.8 Festival - The Countdown Begins....


Having announced the release of a specially priced two-day pass a little over a month ago (you can read about that in a previous NME-Europe post), the organisers of the SOS 4.8 Festival in Murcia, now in its third year, have finally let the punters know what they'll be getting for their money.


The 'big one' is Franz Ferdinand and they will be accompanied by The Horrors, Madness, Fatboy Slim and a host of top Spanish national bands including Love Of Lesbian and We Are Standard.

The organisers have stressed thay this is only the beginning, which is just as well because, with the utmost respect for the 2010 recruits,  most would agree that the current line-up doesn't compare too favourably to last year's edition, which included the likes of The Prodigy, Keane, PJ Harvey, Babyshambles, Too Many DJs, The Wombats, Maxïmo Park or Underworld, amongst others).

It's a question of watch this space for now. Meanwhile, the full initial listing for you to cast your eyes on:

Franz Ferdinand
The Horrors
Madness
Fatboy Slim
Nada Surf
Joe Crepusculo
Love Of Lesbian
We Are Standard
Delorean
Anni B Sweet
Lidia Damunt
Alondra Bentley
Taboo

NME-Europe will keep you posted. Meanwhile, let us know who you'd like to see at this year's festival.
