Forget Coachella. Forget Longitude. Forget Woodstock. The real music event of 2015 is happening in North Korea.
Slovenian avant-garde metallers Laibach will be the first musical act in the history to tour the Hermit Kingdom.
With breezy pop songs such as Life Is Life and See That My Grave Is Kept Clean, they're expected to be greeted with a warm reception by North Korea's hopping gig scene.
Never heard of Laibach? Wow, you're so out of touch with Soviet-era influenced heavy metal.
Laibach celebrated their 35th anniversary this year and have been described as being mix between Rammstein, Kraftwerk and Black Eyed Peas. The last part, we added, after listening to their albums on repeat for the past two days.
The band has been controversial and have been cited for use of fascist imagery, with some of their gigs gaining comparisons to political rallies.
When confronted with such accusations, Laibach responded that they're "fascists as much as Hitler was a painter." So, yeah, make of that what you will.
The tour of North Korea is being organised by Norwegian director Morten Traavik and will be the subject of a documentary due for release in 2016.
