Gravel-in-your guts, spit-in-your-eye, staggering, bloodthirsty rock and roll. They have two 7"s available that capture the snarl and destructive noise they create.

After all these years, some 28 albums and more than 2000 concerts the band continues to work as they did in when they began, completely independent of record companies, managers or roadies.

Discharge

Discharge

16 Oct 2026 - 19 Dec 2026

“Can you hear the sound of an enormous door slamming in the depths of hell…?”Not only is this the chilling description given of a nuclear detonation during one of the sound-bite samples on the first Discharge album, but it’s also a perfect description of the Stoke, UK-based punk band that turned the world of underground music on its head with their primal bursts of uncompromising speed and aggression. Formed in the late Seventies Discharge changed the face of punk – and indeed extreme music itself – with their stunning ‘Realities Of War’ EP, a four-song outpouring of pure intensity that boiled punk down to its basic components of rage, frustration and violent rebellion. Discharge stumbled upon a sound that was so ugly, it was beautiful; so horrifying, it was irresistible – and it ushered in a whole new wave of gnarlier, nastier UK punk, and ultimately paved the way for hardcore and thrash.

Agriculture at Castle and Falcon

Agriculture at Castle and Falcon

20 Jun 2026 - 20 Jun 2026

Extreme music has the ability to be a powerful mode of expression for feelings of absolute bliss, overwhelming love, and awe-inspiring sublimity. Extreme emotions no less and those which black metal quartetAgriculture, a recent signing to The Flenser, evokes with its ecstatic subversion of the sub-genres tropes. Daniel Meyer from the band was quoted when interviewed by The Fader as sayingAt its best, extreme music is about pushing every aspect of the musical experience towards something that feels like a limit. On a musical level, that might involve playing hella fast, super-dense textures, detuned guitars, impossible drumming, and screaming. But its also the live show, which can involve moshing, weird dancing, or just the act of listening to something so intense. In the past, even though a lot of artists have used these techniques to describe horrible aspects of the human experience, the live shows are often scenes of communal ecstasy. I bet that anyone who has ever been to a good black or death metal show can attest to the sense of catharsis and joy that comes from gathering to listen to such intense music. Staying a bird, staying independent, free if you will, for three decades, that takes skill and something else, something more like heart. Music journalist John Corbett on The Ex.

ORCUTT SHELLEY MILLER at The Castle & Falcon
Supersonic Festival are very excited to host a collaboration of underground legends, in the form of Orcutt Shelley Miller. This unique meeting of three boundary-pushing artists brings together decades of innovation across noise, experimental rock, free improv and beyond. Bill Orcutt is renowned for his incendiary guitar work with the seminal 90s noise rock band Harry Pussy, and has since carved a niche in the experimental music scene with his raw, deconstructed guitar improvisations and recent quartet compositions. Steve Shelley, best known as the drummer for noise rock pioneers Sonic Youth, has been a driving force in the indie and experimental music scenes since the early 1980s, with a dynamic drumming style that has contributed to numerous acclaimed projects. Ethan Miller, a central figure in the psychedelic and outer-rock movements, has been at the bow of influential bands such as Comets on Fire and Howlin' Rain, with work characterised by high-energy performances and a fusion of classic rock influences with experimental sounds. "Despite its rhythmic nods to the SoCal '60s, the overall vibe of Orcutt Shelley Miller is angular, atonal slash piled on a mid-'80s SST punk-fusionoid substrate, with Orcutt's bristling chords anchored by Miller's ebbing/ flowing bass. In the engine room, Shelley, the most beat-anchored of the trio, never quite abandons the two-and-four pocket but scrabbles around it, skitters over it, burrows under it, ultimately tapping a sort of Michael Hurley-gone-motorik vibe" - Tom Carter/Charalambides

It’s an ethos that’s open-minded over all else, and that’s seen the band take everything from experimental electronica to vintage funk, and filter it through their own Mancunian lens.

Militarie Gun

Militarie Gun

8 Jun 2026 - 13 Jul 2026

Militarie Gun can’t be stopped. In just two short years since their inception, the Los Angeles-based group have been turning heads with a menacing-yet-melodic sound that’s impossible to ignore and a creative drive that borders on obsession. Formed in 2020, Militarie Gun is defined by the musical restlessness of vocalist/mastermind Ian Shelton. “I’ve always been the kind of person who’s very compelled to do things,” he explains. “Everything suddenly becomes urgent, and that’s how I feel about songwriting—it’s just something I have to do when the inspiration comes.” The band–whose lineup has expanded to include guitarists Nick Cogan and William Acuña, drummer Vince Nguyen, and bassist Max Epstein–draw on a wide range of influences to make something that sounds combative yet accessible, and undeniably their own. There’s the unhinged guitarwork of Born Against, the propulsive cadences of hip hop, the up-front bass of Fugazi–and most importantly, the hooks. Militarie Gun’s songs are instantly memorable, employing a melodic sensibility that’s just as informed by the work of Robert Pollard and Paul McCartney as it is by Black Flag. All Roads Lead To The Gun (Deluxe) marks the culmination of the group’s first two years but the 12 songs make it clear that Militarie Gun’s caustic-yet-catchy sound can’t be easily contained within just hardcore or pop songwriting. This is an ever-evolving band can go in any direction they might want–and Militarie Gun are just getting started.
