While I’m still waiting for the knock-out headliner to appear (Come on aging British band doing the reunion circuit in 2012. Pulp. Stone Roses, or even Jesus and Mary Chain, would do), the Pitchfork Music Festival has added some intriguing acts to the lineup for the weekend of July 13th-15th. None are more intriguing to this rocker than The Men, the anonymously named bunch of New Yorkers who have released the year’s most thrilling rock album to date. Joining The Men are The Atlas Moth, Danny Brown, Clams Casino, Dirty Projectors, Flying Lotus, Iceage, Olivia Tremor Control, Purity Ring, Schooboy Q, and Sleigh Bells. The full lineup, as it stands, follows:
