Canadian post-rock collective\u00a0Godspeed You! Black Emperor<\/strong> have been announced as the final headliner for this year’s\u00a0ArcTanGent Festival<\/strong>. They join the previously announced main stage headliners: Wardruna<\/strong>, Karnivool<\/strong> and Tesseract<\/strong>. Their Thursday night set will be a European exclusive.<\/p>\n

Godspeed You! Black Emperor <\/strong>are not the only band to be added to the line-up.\u00a0Chicago math rock band Snooze<\/strong> will also be playing on the same day (Thursday August 14th).<\/p>\n

Commenting on today’s additions, ArcTanGent<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>organiser James Scarlett said, “We\u2019ve been trying to book Godspeed for a number of years so we\u2019re delighted to finally bring them back to ATG for the first time since they played in 2016. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s an understatement to say they are literally one of the best post-rock bands on the planet and a perfect ArcTanGent headliner. This is going to be a truly unique experience.”<\/em><\/p>\n
