Jamie xx as closer of Mordor or Amazon Music stage makes too much sense for him to play on a Wednesday instead.

The locals are just gonna yap over whatever gets booked anyway, so an electronic act wouldn't fall out of place.

Why do you think they jumped the gun with the announcements?

 

Just seemed rushed

 

Mad cool/bbk dropping soon do you think?

Honestly don't know, maybe not too convinced with their own lineup and wanting to be first? 

 

Or hoping to sell out quickly with their three massive popstars so they can pay their bills... or create money to get at least one proper headliner in the rock/indie segment 😉

No matter how much I like the majority of the lineup, would have loved to have one more big name to look forward to. 

 

Any early tips on smaller font acts I should check? Preferably in the indie/guitar section...

Cannot wait for this. Delighted this is happening at PS.

Glass Beams, if you like Khruangbin, you'll like these.

Dont think BBK and Mad Cool gonna nail artists like Sabrina and Roan, and also Mad Cool and BBK never drop full lineup at once so dont think its related with that

Unrelated to that, I'm surprised Refused weren't booked actually. Really thought they'd do some European dates as part of their final tour but apparently not? 

 

Very disappointed to not see Refused added, as they will be about. They got announced for this today...

They were closing act at Primavera Pro last year, in '25 they'll probably get a nice spot at the former Adidas/Albini stage.

 

Spending my Friday working from home listening to the Beach House catalogue, damn I love this band!

I'm currently listening to Bloom now after a tough day at work, one of my favourite albums from one of my favourite bands, cannae wait to see what they're bringing in 2025.

 

I'm gonna check out more Parcels and Destroyer what I've heard of both is lovely

Destroyer's Kaputt album is bloody amazing, hope some of these songs make it to the setlist

I'm actually content really, yeah I'd have expected something different but have mulled it over and they can just put some of the more indie acts against central cee/sabrina and it'll still be excellent.

Ah glad you're still coming and not losing out on your flights and beautiful Barcelona! Undercard is where its at. 

Though I reckon Twigs set will be stellar

I am reading from a stereogum post that LCD will not present a new album at primavera. Source: primavera itself, apparently. So basically it’s the same show that they were playing this summer. 
 

will they book them in 2026 as welcome friends of the festival? I think we can expect this

Well a new song just dropped from LCD, so I would think a new album is coming

They have a single out today on their website so something is coming.

I like the music and never expected to see them, though not sure if the style will translate into an engaging live performance. 

[MKBAB]

Saw this on Reddit and I decided it’s true 

 

 

[Karlos12345]

Sure. Three of the biggest female contemorary pop acts all on the same day.

[diancieprince]

 

I don’t believe the conspiracy theories on Reddit have any credibility either, but I am curious about how they distribute the big names over the three days… especially since last year it seemed like there was some sort of separation by genre or vibe… 

 

don’t see the big 3 female pop stars the same day but one per day feels like a dirty and unnatural game

I saw them in '94 at Brixton Academy (that dates me 😞 ) supporting Primal Scream, together with the Chems. As far as I recall, it was a blast. I'm not worried about the show not being engaging but it will be terribly sad to see them without Andrew Weatherall's majestic presence..

We already have our 6 headliners. Same as the 2023 line up, which has 6 and then added New Order later on.

It'll be one on each day with then one of Twigs, LCD and Central Cee I assume.
