Primavera Sound 2015 reveals full line-up
The likes of Sleater-Kinney, Brand New and Patti Smith join previously announced headliners The Strokes and Ride.
Primavera Sound 2015 has announced its full line-up tonight via its own specially made Line-App. The Spanish festival is held at Parc Del Forum, on the coast of Barcelona, and The Strokes have already been confirmed as headliners, along with recently reunited shoegaze legends Ride.
To reveal the full line-up, keen revelers must take part in a video game plucked from the inner circles of hell itself. Shooting at a series of scary characters wielding arrows, green flying goo, and other randomly selected pieces of weaponry reveals the acts playing the festival, and it’s a stonkingly good line-up worth every minute of infuriating gameplay.
Among the new additions are… (drum roll, please)
The Strokes, the Replacements, Black Keys, Belle and Sebastian, Ride, Sleater-Kinney, Patti Smith, Run the Jewels, Foxygen, Interpol, the Julie Ruin, James Blake, Panda Bear, the New Pornographers, Death From Above 1979, Spiritualized, tUnE-yArDs, Twin Shadow, Mac DeMarco, Swans, Iceage, the Juan MacLean, Jose Gonzalez, Dan Deacon, Viet Cong, Sun Kil Moon, Antony, Hiss Golden Messenger, Fucked Up, Kelela, Ariel Pink, Mikal Cronin, Ought, Mineral, alt-J, Sunn O))), the Thurston Moore Band, Tyler, the Creator, the Hotelier, Julian Casablancas + the Voidz, Perfume Genius, Underworld (performing dubnobasswithmyheadman), Pallbearer, Pharmakon, Shabazz Palaces, Tobias Jesso Jr., American Football, Jon Hopkins, DIIV, Caribou, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Mourn, Torres, My Brightest Diamond, HEALTH, Babes in Toyland, Thee Oh Sees, Single Mothers, Ex Hex, and Shellac
Yep, definitely worth the wait. The poster and line-up video are both below:
