ArcTanGent Festival have announced a load of new bands for this summer's bill. Rolo Tomassi, Chat Pile, HEALTH, SikTh, Witchsorrow, Chinese Football, GGGOLDDD, Car Bomb, Caligula’s Horse, Apidae, Abraham, Burial Clouds, Hammok, Hypno5e, Pothamus, Death Goals and Lys Morke have all been added to the fest, taking place at Fernhill Farm near Bristol on August 16 – 19.

Festival top brass James Scarlett says of the Chat Pile booking, "With their debut album easily being one of my top releases of 2022, we’ve been working ridiculously hard to get Chat Pile to ATG 2023. They’re pretty much the most exciting thing going at the moment so we’re over the moon with this announcement. We told you it was just going to get bigger and better!"

Following on from the madness of 2022's shindig, this year's ArcTanGent once again features a thrillingly eclectic bill from across the sphere of heavy and less-than-usual music. Today's bands join a line-up that already includes U.S. hardcore legends Converge, Scandinavian ancient folk outfit Heilung, U.S. post-black metallers Deafheaven, progressive black metallers Enslaved, Simon Neil's Empire State Bastard, Brit post-metallers Svalbard, math-grinders Pupil Slicer, anarcho black metal terrors Dawn Ray'd and many more.
