The Roskilde music festival announced its ticket sale and initial line up for 2013.

The event will include psychedelic heavy weights like Queens of the Stone Age and electronic names such as C2C and Daedelus. Regarding the Queens of the Stone Age pick, music director Rikke Øxner said:

Queens of the Stone Age is a band that both the audience and we have wanted back for long. They really know how to start a rock party on the Orange Stage. From the other end of the genre spectrum, we’re pleased to start early with some electronic announcements.
