Legendary British band Faithless was the first act announced for the lineup of Arsenal Fest 2025, which will take place at Kragujevac’s Prince’s Arsenal from 26 th to 28 th June. To the delight of count- less fans, this famous band will perform a live concert and not merely a DJ set, ensuring an unforgettable atmosphere during the performance at the festival’s jubilee 15 th edition. Faithless returned to live performanc- es in 2024, following an eight-year hi- atus. The band has since headlined at three major UK festivals: Glastonbury, Wilderness and Bestival, thus mark- ing their return to the scene following the late 2022 death of singer, song- writer and DJ Maxi Jazz. “We miss Maxi every day, but we couldn’t and didn’t want to stop making new music. Dur- ing his long illness, we recorded the al- bum All Blessed and now here we are, back on stage,” stated the band mem- bers recently. The nucleus forming the core of Faith- less was established in 1995 and con- sists of Rollo Armstrong, one of the leading pioneers of the British house scene, and Sister Bliss, who has built an outstanding reputation as a DJ. Hits like Salva Mea, Insomnia, God Is a DJ and many others conquered the world in the late 20 th and early 21 st centu- ries. Since 1996’s debut album Rev- erence, Faithless has earned a repu- tation as one of the biggest electronic acts of the last 30 years. A whopping 17 of their hits have made the UK Top 40 chart, together with six Top 10 al- bums, including three that made it to number one. The fact that the band’s songs have amassed more than a bil- lion online streams shows that Faithless has also been embraced massively by younger generations. The band will this year release its eighth album, Champi- on Sound, which has already been an- nounced with the singles Find a Way and I’m Not Alone (Rest Well Maxwell). Faithless has a large fan base in Serbia, as confirmed by every visit the band has made to the country since 2004. Now set to arrive in Kragujevac for the first time, to attend Arsenal Fest, the band is ready to share the joy of returning to the stage and entering a new chapter in their rich career with the audience in the heart of Šumadija.
