Primavera Sound Festival 2016's line-up unveiled! This time there was no gala, special show, not even a special announcement. Just a video (having said that, the clip is very cool, see below) on Youtube that this morning revealed the artists/bands performing, a day after it was originally posted (provoking some ridiculous complaints by people that need to get a life, seriously). But let’s focus on what matters: is the #PrimaveraAllStars hashtag deserved? Indeed, it's an impressive line-up again, one that for sure will make happy a vast majority of attendants to the Festival. Quite a lot to see if overlaps have mercy with us. But there are few (if any) surprises, many bands that also took part at Primavera Club, some others touring regularly Spain, and many national groups that I'll see during the year. On a first impression, there's a lack of indiepop bands (few Antipodean groups!) and, compared with last year, I'm dubious if we have as many unmissable acts. Anyway, a Festival with PJ Harvey, The Chills, Robert Forster, Savages and Protomartyr means excitement to come.
So, honouring the Blog’s tradition, here’s our traditional rough (we don't have the timetables yet) “paint & colour” version of the line-up with our first impressions on the bands we are willing to see. Promising, right?
