Spiderland



Pitchfork posted today that there is a music festival happening in Spain this summer in which most of the greatest indie bands will be playing. The Primavera Sound Festival will feature (among others) Modest Mouse, Built To Spill, Low, Isis, Band of Horses...
but the most exciting news: SLINT.
After regrouping (after 10 years) this past summer, Slint played a few shows and stopped, saying they would probably never play again. They even went so far as to sell a lot of their instruments and equipment on eBay.
I think the bug has bit them again - as they are to be performing their masterpiece album SPIDERLAND in its entirety.

I wish I lived in Spain.
