Bon Iver, Elbow and Paul Weller headline this year's Latitude Festival, with the likes of Rufus Wainwright, Metronomy and Alabama Shakes all promising first-class sets at this weekend's Suffolk event.

You know all of these bands and artists are going to give first-class, solid performances - which is why you won't find any of them in our list of must-see bands at this weekend's Latitude festival. This year's Suffolk event has one of the year's most distinct line-ups (no Rihanna! No Chase & Status!) with as much exciting action taking place on the smaller stages as the Obelisk Arena.

So from melodic Icelandic indie to eighties influenced pop rock, check out the coolest bands on this year's Latitude line-up...
