Friday Bears: Final Pitchfork Music Festival additions

July's annual Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago added the final acts to its 2011 billing earlier today. Late additions of Battles, whose new album Gloss Drop will be released early June, were added to the July 15-17 festival alongside veterans DJ Shadow, Superchunk, and Thurston Moore.

Also added were: Toro Y Moi, Zola Jesus, Twin Shadow, tUnE-yArDs, Cold Cave, OFF!, Wild Nothing, Julianna Barwick, EMA, Darkstar, and Gatekeeper.

The fest's three-day tickets have been sold out for a while, but single days are still available here.

Oh, and before anyone forgets - any act that plays Pitchfork Music Fest cannot play Lollapalooza.
