Continuing to expand its line-up for its 2018 event, which already has confirmed and announced headline slots from Glassjaw, Shellac, and And So I Watch You From Afar, the organisers of the annual ArcTanGent Festival in Bristol have confirmed the third wave of acts that composes the line-up.

The second batch of acts to form this year’s ArcTanGent Festival have just been confirmed, and will all be joining the line-up which already boasts names like And So I Watch From Afar, Jamie Lenman, Rolo Tomassi, and Pianos Become The Teeth.

Progressively establishing itself as the premium annual home for progressive, technical and math-esque artists across the rock and metal world, the organisers of Bristol’s own ArcTanGent Festival have confirmed the first slew of acts to make up the 2018 line-up.

It was back in 2009 when The Number 12 Looks Like You were first and last in the UK, and now with an appearance at ArcTanGent Festival confirmed, the band have announced they’ll be doing a small handful of headline dates of their own whilst they’re over here.

Whilst they’re over in the UK as part of this year’s ArcTanGent Festival and also Reading & Leeds Festival, Boston based melodic hardcore outfit Defeater have confirmed they’ll be heading out on a headline tour of their own.

With a further 24 names confirmed to join the line-up, the organisers of this year’s ArcTanGent festival in Bristol has now been completed and finalised. Names that make up the final announcement for the bill include Heck, Landscapes, Nordic Giants, Big Jesus, and a bunch more.

It seems that as the weeks go by, ArcTanGent begins to build itself as one of the bigger names on the independent festival circuit in the UK. Nothing supports that more than their latest line-up additions, seeing over 30 acts join the bill, including Defeater, God Is An Astronaut, Devil Sold His Soul, Listener, and more.

Having already confirmed exclusive festival appearances from both Converge and Explosions In The Sky for this year’s event, ArcTanGent Festival have now added a further ten new acts to their line-up, including TesseracT, SikTh, Employed To Serve, and more.

Set to return again later this year, growing Bristol based weekender ArcTanGent have just confirmed and named their two headliners for the 2017 edition of the festival. Both Explosions In The Sky and Converge will be taking to the main stage for what will be their only UK appearances of the whole year.

ArcTanGent Festival has announced it’s first wave of acts for its 2016 lineup. The event will take place at Fernhill Farm, Bristol between August 18-20th, and you can check out the new additions below:
