Festival booker and organiser James Scarlett said: “To celebrate our 10th birthday we wanted to invite back some of our all-time favourite bands from over the years.
“We drew up a list of all the bands that have ever played ATG that weʼd like back and, as it was probably the best thing Iʼve ever seen at ATG, naturally Meshuggah was top of that list.”
Scarlett added: “Animals As Leaders last played way back in 2016 so they werenʼt far behind! Weʼre stoked to be welcoming both bands back in even bigger fashion than last time, to celebrate 10 years of ATG.”
Meshuggah released their ninth and most recent studio album, ‘Immutable’, in April 2022 before embarking on a European and UK/Ireland headline tour the following month. This summer, they played at Bloodstock Open Air in Derbyshire as well as numerous events in Europe.
NME previously hailed ArcTanGent as an “essential” festival, writing: “Based in a remote farm somewhere near Bristol, and comprising of a line-up of math-rock, post-rock, noise, esoteric metal and other such ‘fringe’ genres, it’s a weekend escape like no other on offer.”
