Okay, slow, deep breaths. It's only April. Yesterday, the Pitchfork Music Festival powers that be released the lineup for this summer's three day, non-stop, I-just-saw-ten-amazing-bands-in-a-row extravaganza. Rather than rattle on about who and what we can't wait to see (you hear that Grimes? We mean you), we'll let you check it out for yourselves below and then freak out in our comments section. You know you can count on us to tell you what to wear (and what to pack if you're not lucky enough to live in Chicago), so just sit back, relax, and wait for July. And maybe, in the meantime, put on some music.
