The line-up for one of America's biggest festivals, Lollapalooza, was announced today, with some of the biggest bands in the world due to gather stateside for the annual Chicago event.

But who to see? We've collected together some of the stand out acts on this year's enormous and impressive line-up for anyone planning on heading to the US festival - and not just the one's you might expect. Alongside headliners such as Red Hot Chili Peppers and Black Sabbath, we'd recommend catching established UK acts such as Bombay Bicycle Club and Nero as well as upcoming, uber-cool blog favourites such as The Weeknd and Little Dragon - and many more.

Check out our recommendations for the must-see bands of Lollapalooza 2012.
