admin on Mar 11th 2008
Rounding out an already stellar line-up, Primavera have added the following acts to the bill before raising ticket prices once again this coming weekend.
New additions include: Explosions In The Sky, MGMT, Devo, The Sonics, Shellac, Mount Eerie, Times New Viking, Moho, The Clientele, La Estrella De David, Mi and l’Au, Bèstia Ferida, and Devastations. The Wave Pictures have been confirmed for the official after-party (supported by Drowned in Sound DJs) and there are still more names yet to be announced. Still at only €115, this festival is not one to be missed.

It’s Official: Godspeed You! Black Emperor Are No Longer
admin on Feb 10th 2008
Guitarist Efrim Menuck has revealed that instrumental post-rock ensemble Godspeed You! Black Emperor, who have drifted into an ambiguous hiatus since 2003, are unlikely to ever record or tour together again. Speaking in an interview with Drowned in Sound, Menuck revealed that he experienced “an existential freak-out” about the increasing “one-way communication” between the band and their audiences. Citing a complicated back story, Menuck describes how he now finds the influential Canadian band’s efforts as something “inappropriate” to pursue, signalling for the first time in public the group’s official end.
