We’re thrilled to reveal that Midlands post-hardcore powerhouse RECKONER will be joining the lineup for the inaugural Novacaine Festival, taking place on Saturday, 4th October 2025, at Corporation, Sheffield.
Hot off the heels of their explosive performance supporting The Five Hundred at Nottingham’s iconic Rescue Rooms, RECKONER are poised to unleash their signature blend of raw intensity and cathartic energy on a brand new stage. This appearance marks not only their Novacaine debut, but also a pivotal moment in the festival’s launch year.
The band’s latest single, ‘ifailme’—released on March 11th, 2025—has already racked up over 11,000 Spotify streams, making it their most successful release to date. With momentum building fast, RECKONER are clearly a band on the rise. We're proud to welcome them to Novacaine Festival and help introduce their sound to a brand-new Sheffield audience.
Brace yourselves—RECKONER are coming.
Festival founder and promoter Scott O’Shea commented:
“We are incredibly excited to see RECKONER bring their massive energy to Novacaine Festival. After their performance with The Five Hundred earlier this year, and with a spot opening up on the lineup, we knew they were the right band for the job.”
He added:“We’ve still got one more act to announce—and if you were at Download Festival this year at The Doghouse Stage in the Village, you may already have a sense of the chaos that’s still to come…”
