Quite an interesting press release we received today from the Sziget Office.

To anticipate Iron Maiden’s performance at Sziget, Derek Riggs, creator of Maiden mascot Eddie, has made a special Sziget drawing for the cover of New Noise magazine.

The image features Eddie withe the Hungarian Parliament as a hat, shouting “Sziget”.

See the large image here.

We can’t wait for the festival to start, either…

(this post is updated constantly)

The first official line-up announcement has just been posted on the official Hungarian website.

The first two very important names are ones that we all suspected – Muse and Iron Maiden!!!

Next come more important names:  Kasabian, Billy Talent, The Specials and Gorrillaz Sound System.

Happy hardcore band Enter Shikari and Infected Mushroom (that Sziget News found out about some time ago) will also be there.

Then, Faithless, Danko Jones, the Hives and The Toy Dolls and Bad Religion (both of the last two names were announced here).

Also at Sziget will be Ska-P, that have been at Sziget before, and Gentleman.

Metal fans will be very happy to hear that Paradise Lost, that we told you about, will be joined in the Sziget lineup by The 69 Eyes and Ill Niño. And for the more extreme ones of you guys, Children of Bodom will be at Sziget Festival 2010!

Also on the metal front, Monster Magnet will be there, as well as GWAR, that Sziget News found out about a while ago!

In the same area, Papa Roach are also mentioned on the “Programs” page.

The fabulous lineup is completed with The Cribs, Subsonica and K.I.Z.

We also forgot to mention Lyapis Trubetskoy

Hope you are all as excited as we are! (FIDutchman, you’ve been a great help!)

Later edit: the Dutch Sziget official site also mentions Skindred for the WAN2 stage. (our thanks go to dinges)

Fake flyer - www.szigetnews.com

This is a fake flyer for the festival that’s going around the Internet… How do we know it’s a fake? First, the dates are wrong and second, why would the organizers not mention R.E.M.? Still, it would be nice to have all these artists on the island this year…
