The Black Keys, Radiohead and Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg were announced today as the headliners for this year's Coachella festival.  

But with Pulp, At The Drive-In and Refused also appearing at the Californian festival, you could be forgiven for thinking you were looking at a line-up from the '90s.

Even without the reunions, there is still plenty to be excited about, with festival favourites like Bon Iver and the Arctic Monkeys making an appearance, whilst a whole host of fresh talent in the shape of Azealia Banks and Frank Ocean make welcome additions to the line-up.

To coincide with the announcement, Gigwise has compiled a list of twenty acts that you do not want to miss if you're making the journey to Coachella this year.

The festival takes place at the Empire Polo Fields in Indio and runs for two consecutive weekend between April 13 - 15 and 20 - 22.
