Interpol, Death Cab, Gnarls, Justice Do Quart Fest

They've been holding the Quart Festival in Kristiansand, Norway every year since the mid 1990s, and, by now, they've gotten pretty damn good at it. Sure, the lovely lowlands locale helps, and there's also a skateboarding contest, but the talent pool's the real draw.

This year, Quart's bottled up a heady brew for its fest, taking place July 2-5. Interpol, Death Cab for Cutie, Liars, the Streets, Justice, Battles, Dizzee Rascal, Gnarls Barkley, Spank Rock, Holy Fuck, Trentemøller, Future of the Left, Asobi Seksu, Kool Keith, Lykke Li, I'm From Barcelona, Audion, Shining, Edan and Dagha, the Hives, Saul Williams, Anti-Flag, Parts and Labor, Röyksopp, UNKLE, O'Death, Datarock, Kate Nash, Young Knives, Digitalism, and more will all take the stage. As will Kings of both Convenience and Leon.

Just don't hold Jason Mraz's presence against them.
