Minimal details at the moment but they've put together a little flash presentation. Some familiar faces as usual in there:

Even though it's early days, who is feeling up for it?

All depends on what the line up is gonna be like and how close its gonna be to BLOC........cos doing both in a few weeks will cost a bomb.
You can see quite a few familiar faces in their little flash video

I have to be honest most of the lineup have played at a Bangface but that doesn't stop it being an awesome lineup. Snares and Pusher was a good signing and is always going to pull a lot of punters in. It is like having a festival based around the Overkill tent at Glade. I would like to see some people added that will really excite me/suprise me.
I'll keep checking and wait for someone to be announced that makes me book a ticket.

Yea theres a lot of big names and it is a good line up so far but its nothing new........Maybe they will announce lots more different acts but I like going to festivals and seeing people that I've never seen before and probally don't get a good chance at seeing very often.
Don't get me wrong I would quite happily go and see all those acts and love it but I'm not gonna buy a ticket til they announce more

Bang Face have always just booked existing "big name" breakcore acts as far as I'm aware. So it's no surprise that their festival reflects that.
Still it's a good line up, not often you'll get the opportunity to see all those names sharing a stage.

Hmmm yeah I have to agree. Artists on the Bangface lineup I have never seen before:
DJ Stingray and Bogdan.
Compared to people on the Bloc lineup that I have never seen and really want to see.
Lory D
Amon Tobin
Dynamix II
Dave Clarke
Mr Velcro Fastener
Manasyt
Syntheme
A Guy called Gerald
Bitstream
There are plenty of others on the list that I haven't seen and am interested in. A festival is not just about booking all the well known acts that have been tried and tested before. I am still considering Bangface but also hoping for just a few surprises. Bloc is a deffinate however
