Slint, and OM have been announced for All Tomorrow's Parties final UK event - End Of An Era Weekend Two taking place at Camber Sands Holiday Centre, East Sussex and curated by ATP and Loop and will be held from Friday 29th November until Sunday 1st December 2013.

Kentucky based Slint released two albums Tweez (1989) and Spiderland (1991). ATP boss Barry Hogan remembers, "I'll never forget the first time I heard Spiderland. It's one of those records that changed my life and even inspired me to reform the band in 2005 by flying to Louisville, and bringing all the original members together for the first time in 13 years. Spiderland still excites me now as much as the first time I heard it. To say we are fortunate to have this incredibly influential band play the final ATP is a huge understatement."

He did get Slint to reform and headline All Tomorrow's Parties in 2005, before performing the Spiderland album in full for the first time at another short series of live appearances in 2007. ATP have been able to get Slint back to make a very rare live appearance as one of the headliners of the last ever ATP holiday camp festival.

They join a line-up topped by 80s psychedelic/drone rockers Loop, plus Curators LOOP will perform alongside The Pop Group, 23 Skidoo, Mogwai, Balam Acab, White Fence, Ty Segall, Follakzoid, Wolf People, Civil Civic, Tall Firs, Dawn Hunger, Kandodo, New War, Jonathan Toubin, Fennesz, Edan (DJ set), Dirty Beaches, Eaux, Hookworms, The KVB, Thought Forms, Goat, Superchunk, Comets On Fire, Girls Against Boys, and Michael Rother  presents the music of Neu! & Harmonia, and more.
