Novacaine Rating: 10/10

“Night Thieves are one of the UK’s most thrilling rising acts, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have had the privilege of booking them for Novacaine Festival last year. We first discovered them with their 2024 EP Polarity, which immediately grabbed our attention, especially the track Collide, which we had on constant repeat. And now, they’ve done it again with their debut album METAXIS!

This album is a powerhouse from start to finish, showcasing their raw energy and artistry. Adding to the excitement, they’ve collaborated with Jessie Powell of Dream State on the track See You On The Otherside. This collaboration isn’t just a milestone for the band, it’s a clear sign that Night Thieves are on a trajectory toward major success.

This is a band that you should not only listen to, but one you certainly need to buy a ticket to witness them live, and if you are a promoter, you need to get them booked on your shows, they will bring a show-stopping performance to your night!” - Scott O’Shea
