The official Hungarian site lists a new stage for this year’s stage, that looks like a follow-up to the now gone Hammer World – The Rock Stage. This is where metal, punk, hard core, pop-rock, hard rock, blues and indie rock acts will play and among the acts listed for the new Rock Stage are Expatriate, Donots, GWAR, Turbonegro, Life of Agony, Brujeria and Backyard Babies.

…at least that’s what Hungarian music site Zene.hu says in the article (Hungarian) they published today. Faith No More are listed for the Main Stage, and so are Manic Street Preachers. The article also includes some other new names.

One of these is Maximo Park, that our friend Mellowmaniac predicted a while ago. Then, there’s Chris Corner’s project IAMX, that we also told you about a while ago. Also listed is famous BBC Radio 1 DJ Pete Tong.

And it doesn’t end here. Life of Agony are also listed to play at this year’s Sziget.

And some more good news, from the release on the Hungarian site. Primal Scream are also listed to play at this year’s Sziget!

UPDATE!!! Our wish (and yours, we’re sure) came true: It’s official! The Sziget official Facebook page lists Faith No More and Manic Street Preachers as confirmed acts!

And yet another UPDATE: the official Sziget Hungarian site also lists these bands, as well as Turbonegro. The rest of the bands have already been mentioned on Szigetnews.

And another UPDATE on this very busy day: La Fura Dels Baus, Nouvelle Vague and Emily Loizeau are also confirmed on the French Sziget site.
