Canadian tech-death virtuosos Archspire and Californian deathgrind legends Cattle Decapitation will headline the inaugural edition of Flatline Fest, a brand-new extreme metal festival curated by acclaimed producer Dave Otero.
The two-day event will take place June 13 and 14 at The Oriental Theater in Denver, Colorado, with tickets available now via flatlinefest.com. Otero, who has worked extensively with every band on the lineup through his Flatline Audio studio or other projects, described the festival as a celebration of long-standing creative relationships.
“I’ve collaborated with every band in this lineup in the studio over many years and have always wanted to put something like this together,” Otero said. “The fest is a chance to celebrate those friendships in one of our favorite independent venues.”
One of Flatline Fest’s most anticipated moments will be the live debut of Nuclear Power Trio, the masked instrumental outfit widely rumored to feature members of Cephalic Carnage, Allegaeon, and Havok. The performance marks the first time the project has taken the stage, adding an element of mystery and excitement to the weekend.
