The Quietus Stage At Desertfest 2018

tQ will once again be hosting a stage at this the magnificent Desertfest, with White Hills, Snapped Ankles, Ghold and more!

With Desertfest returning to North London once again, tQ are proud to announce the lineup for our stage at The Black Heart on Friday May 4.

Our headliners will be none other than the truest outliers of modern space rock White Hills, whose concentrated cosmic beams to the outer reaches of the musical universe are something truly tremendous to behold.

Joining them on the bill will be noise-rock pummelers Ghold, whose crushing new album Stoic was released late last year, as well as one of 2017’s most exciting newcomers – the fantastically feral Snapped Ankles.

We’re also thrilled to announce live sets from the two-drummered behemoth of a band that is Casual Nun, the sublimely noisy Melting Hand, and heavy-psych newcomers Swedish Death Candy.

Elsewhere, Desertfest will host the likes of High On Fire, Monster Magnet, Graveyard, Napalm Death and many, many more across three days and a number of venues.
