The Acacia Strain

The Acacia Strain document the deconstruction of society from the front row. The metal institution survey humanity’s fate with seasick grooves, thrash precision, doom vulnerability and vocal convulsions. Founded in 2001, they are a maelstrom of metal and hardcore that has engendered diehard fandom within a cult audience and put up unprecedented numbers for an extreme act, including multi-million streams, #35 on the Billboard top 200 and top 5 on the Billboard Independent Album Charts. Along the way, they have toured with Architects, Parkway Drive, Hatebreed, Chelsea Grin, After The Burial, Crowbar, Aborted and more.

Joining TAS are fellow US death-metallers, Fuming Mouth, who are back for just their second-ever visit to the UK following their outstanding & packed headline show of January. They released their new album, ‘Last Day of Sun’ in late 2023 on Nuclear Blast. Completing your line up is Texan metalcore / crossover thrashers, Judiciary, who are no strangers to the modern metal landscape after the release of their stunning second album, ‘Flesh + Blood’ in 2023 on Closed Casket Activities, and tours alongside some of the scenes finest in Kublai Khan TX, Frozen Soul, God’s Hate and more.
