The last Facemelter of 2017! Prepare for a blowout of post-metal, math rock and odd atmospheres from three newcomers to our world.

---------------------
Chiyoda Ku

Making waves in the post-rock scene in recent years, this Bristol-based band has a strong, smooth rhythm section sitting under dark and jagged guitar lines, with their use of controlled dynamics and raw energy taking you through a journey of unexpected twists and turns.

They've just released their debut full-length album 'How It Works' and have already shared the stage with 65daysofstatic and Thought Formsand played at ArcTanGent twice.

"Imaginatively mature music" - Louder Than War Magazine

"Their unique brand of controlled pandemonium left a mark that will not be easily forgotten." - Bristol Live Magazine

---------------------
Low Sun

A London-based instrumental band who play a blend of stoner, heavy psych and post-metal, with atmospheric overtones and a touch of doom.

Active behind the scenes since 2012, and after trying out several singers, the founding members gravitated back to their original instrumental format and the music flowed. 

They recently released their latest track 'Icicles', a 15-minute epic spanning a huge range of sounds.

"They expand the corners of what constitutes stoner rock and psychedelia with courage and a musical talent which speaks for itself" - Heavy Planet

---------------------
Archelon

An accomplished sound from this Sheffield-based band, flowing effortlessly between delicate buildups to dark and heavy rock riffs, layered with breathy, coarse vocals, resulting in a sound that calls back to the earliest pioneers of post-metal.
