Deafheaven added to this year’s ArcTanGent 2015

ArcTanGent festival has announced a slew of new acts, with San Franciscan noise merchants Deafheaven leading the way.

The latest announcement for the festival came earlier today and contained five new artists all taken from label Sargent House.

Deafheaven, Helms Alee, Marriages, Mylets and Emma Ruth Rundle will all now be appearing at the Bristol-based fest, which takes place from 20th to 22nd August.

They join the likes of headliners The Dillinger Escape Plan, who top the main bill, and 65daysofstatic, along with Rolo Tomassi, Her Name Is Calla, Talons, Tangled Hair and Black Peaks, who are also confirmed to appear.

Speaking about booking the two headliners, organiser James Scarlett said: “This year we were keen to come back bigger and better than ever,” adding: “We’re really close to confirming the other headliners and should have news on that very soon, along with some other amazing bands that are often requested by our fans.”

The Thursday night of ArcTanGent is open for “super-fans”, whereby a three-day-festival ticket is required. This’ll grant access to see 65daysofstatic, Cleft, Alpha Male Party and AK/DK.

Tickets for this year’s ArcTanGent are on sale now.
