Slint will perform and curate the first weekend of All Tomorrow's Parties of 2005, on February 25th, 26th and 27th at Camber Sands Holiday Centre, East Sussex.

Core members Brian McMahan, David Pajo and Britt Walford will be selecting an eclectic line-up for the weekend and will themselves be playing music from their albums 'Tweez' and 'Spiderland' as well as the posthumous untitled ten-inch single. Soon after the 1991 release of the acclaimed 'Spiderland', Slint disbanded but their remarkable music went on to inspire and influence an ever-widening legion of fans. Now, for the first time since their separation, Slint returns for this very special edition of All Tomorrow's Parties.

The response to rumours of this extraordinary performance has indicated tickets will go fast, so DO NOT wait around. Tickets for the 2005 event, priced at £120, go on sale on Friday 15th October, 10am GMT. Full line-up details will be announced in the coming months. Ticket price includes all the gubbins you get at the Christmas event.
