Coachella has always been seen as the least traditional of the big U.S. music festivals, and in 2010, they're definitely staying with that sentiment. On Tuesday (January 19), organizers revealed the lineup for this year's Coachella fest — set for April 15-18 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California — and the bill is topped by three acts you wouldn't necessarily see headlining fests here in the states (except when the Beastie Boys drop out at the last minute): Jay-Z, Muse and Gorillaz.

Joining them are the usual assortment of 'Chella acts, including the prerequisite reunited acts (Pavement, Faith No More), the icons (Thom Yorke, Devo, Sly and the Family Stone), the indie stalwarts (Vampire Weekend, Phoenix, Spoon, MGMT), the hotly tipped buzz acts (Yeasayer, the xx, La Roux,) and electro mainstays (Orbital, Hot Chip, LCD Soundsystem.)

Other acts on the bill — which features more than 130 acts — include Them Crooked Vultures, Grizzly Bear, She & Him, Coheed and Cambria, De La Soul, Sunny Day Real Estate and the Raveonettes.

Jay-Z will close out the fest's Friday night (with LCD on the undercard), Muse draw the Saturday headlining slot (with Faith No More before them), and the Gorillaz — set to return this year with their Plastic Beach album — will wrap up the whole shebang with their Sunday night spot (Pavement are the secondary headliners).

Tickets for the 2010 edition of Coachella go on sale Friday (January 22) at 10 a.m. through the fest's official site, with a three-day pass costing $269.
