Description was written before the event

The Amity Affliction bring their new album House of Cards to MeetFactory as part of their European tour. Following Ahren Stringer's departure, the band is joined by Jonny Reeves (Kingdom of Giants), whose vocals contrast with Joel's raw delivery - the same principle that has defined their work from Let the Ocean Take Me to the present day.

Supporting acts include Silent Planet, Varials, and Orthodox. Silent Planet are a progressive metalcore band known for the literary-minded lyrics of frontman Garrett Russell. Philadelphia's Varials released their fourth album Where the Light Leaves on February 27, 2026 under Fearless Records, with production by Josh Schroeder. Orthodox open the evening with hardcore influenced by nu-metal and mathcore.

About the venue: MeetFactory

MeetFactory is a non-profit international centre for contemporary art, founded in 2001 by artist David Černý. It is housed in an industrial building in Prague's Smíchov district, squeezed between a motorway and an active railway. The centre runs four departments – music, theatre, galleries, and an artist-in-residence programme, the largest studio programme in the Czech Republic. Its concert hall holds up to 1,000 people.
