Primavera Sound 2014 Lineup
Last week, we speculated that British shoegaze greats Slowdive might be reuniting. Today, we learn they they are indeed back together — more thoughts on that here — and they’re set to play Barcelona’s Primavera Sound Festival, which is living up to its reputation as perhaps the best-curated big festival in the entire planet. Primavera just announced the lineup for this year’s festival, which comes to Parc del Fòrum 5/28-31, and Slowdive is just a small part of it. Arcade Fire, the National, and Nine Inch Nails will each headline a day of the fest, and the rest of the lineup is absolutely stacked: Queens Of The Stone Age, Kendrick Lamar, Neutral Milk Hotel, Pixies, Disclosure, Volcano Choir, St. Vincent, Caetano Veloso, HAIM, Loop, Chvrches, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Television playing Marquee Moon, Sky Ferreira, Mogwai, Supechunk, Deafheaven, Real Estate, and a ton of others are on the bill. Check here for details. Here’s the full lineup:
