This year, the Chicago lineup features at least a few names from the festival's heyday years—most notably enduring funk-rockers Red Hot Chili Peppers—but in keeping with the fest's original spirit, Lollapalooza 2012 largely celebrates the sounds of right now: M83's epic synth rock and tUnE-yArDs' neo-tribal ruckus, Bassnectar and SBTRKT's differing takes on dubstep, The Tallest Man on Earth's Swedish-accented alt-country, Michael Kiwanuka's arresting folk blues and Sigur Ros' aching instrumental rock. In between, the playlist will give you plenty of chill electropop (Washed Out, Neon Indian), indie rock (Twin Shadow, Bear in Heaven) and even some retro soul (Aloe Blacc). Dive in and enjoy this handy primer for one of alternative rock's finest festivals.
