Primavera Sound announced their official 2016 lineup today, and as in past years, they continue to wow with a stellar array of talent.

Headliners this year include Radiohead, the newly reunited LCD Soundsystem, and Sigur Rós.

Up next will be a disparate mix of new and classic talent, including PJ Harvey, Tame Impala, The Last Shadow Puppets, Brian Wilson (who mirroring his upcoming Levitation 2016 set, will be performing Pet Sounds in its entirety), Explosions in the Sky, and director/composer John Carpenter.

I have to add, the inclusion of Carpenter is especially killing me, being a massive fan in the States, I can only hope some other festival stateside will snag him up. Please! That would be a true moment of film/music geek nirvana. Egads.

Primavera Sound runs June 1st – 5th at the Parc del Fòrum.
