Siren Festival 2008 Initial Lineup
We offered muted praise for last year's initial lineup, but hat tip to the Village Voice for a) bringing back Siren for another installment (weren't their rumblings that last year was the end?) and b) pulling together a spread much more worthy of a train ride to Coney this year. Here's the first dispatch:
	Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks
	Broken Social Scene
	The Helio Sequence
	Beach House
	Times New Viking
	Jaguar Love
	The Dodos
	Annuals
	Film School
	Parts & Labor
	Dragons Of Zynth
	These Are Powers
Malkmus, BSS, Times New Viking, Annuals, this will conquer the beach. But Beach House? Really? A summer stage with boomy sound isn't exactly the best environment for the narcotic Baltimore duo, but hey -- it is free, it's July 19th, and pro tip: you'll probably wanna remember your earplugs. More info when we get it, or just keep tabs here. - Source
