So alongside label stalwarts such as Secondsmile and This Town Needs Guns, some of our new friends from 2008, such as Blakfish, Pulled Apart By Horses and Tubelord, will be making their debut appearances, as well as a handful of our very exciting 2009 favourites-to-be, including the wonderful Copy Haho.
