they said… it’ll be amazing, they said. Load of shite.”
Rou Reynolds, Enter Shikari

“I had the idea of making Enter Shikari the first band ever to perform in space
…we didn’t have enough budget to get them there and back, so just faked
the whole thing in a studio in East London. Take that Kubrick.”
Kristian Young, Director

ENTER SHIKARI REVEAL NEW TRACK “RABBLE ROUSER” The Spark to be released on Friday September 22

Enter Shikari reveal provocative new track “Rabble Rouser“, taken from highly anticipated album The Spark released on Friday September 22 through Play It Again Sam/Ambush Reality. “Rabble Rouser” premiered earlier this week as Hottest Record In The World on Annie Mac’s BBC Radio 1 show. This follows the release of huge acclaimed single “Live Outside” which is currently B listed on BBC Radio 1.

“I see ‘Rabble Rouser’ as putting music to my job description. Bringing people together and getting them rowdy and energised. The track’s influenced by the plethora of genres that I was lucky enough to grow up with; from jungle to garage, to grime, to dubstep. I can’t wait to play this live”. (Rou Reynolds)

New album The Spark is an ambitious, inspiring piece of work that poignantly reflects their legendary career rise to have become one of the most exciting bands the UK has ever seen. Following four seminal albums, three of which have been Top 10, The Spark is produced by David Kosten (Everything Everything, Bat For Lashes), and is their most melodic and personal album to date; a soundtrack to our tumultuous world, a record for everyone who’s filled with frustration but hasn’t lost the capacity for hope.

ENTER SHIKARI ANNOUNCE ANTICIPATED NEW ALBUM THE SPARK 
Out Friday September 22 on Play It Again Sam
via [PIAS]

Listen to first single “Live Outside” now

Last night Enter Shikari announced the release of highly anticipated new album The Spark on Friday September 22 on Play It Again Sam via [PIAS], with a surprise show for fans in London and a reveal of the first single “Live Outside” as Hottest Record In The World on Annie Mac’s Radio 1 show.

The Spark is an ambitious, inspiring piece of work that poignantly reflects their legendary career rise to have become one of the biggest and most exciting bands the UK has ever seen. Following FOUR seminal albums of which three have been Top 10 in the UK, The Spark is produced by David Kosten (Everything Everything, Bat For Lashes), and is Shikari’s most melodic and personal album to date; a soundtrack to our tumultuous world, a record for everyone who’s filled with frustration but hasn’t lost the capacity for hope.

“The spark is a new connection, a new beginning,” says maverick frontman Rou Reynolds. “It can be short and insignificant, but it can create something so significant. The spark is that light at the end of the tunnel – when everything seems to be falling apart, but you’re able to see some sort of path out of the dark.”

In 2015, the ground started to fall from under Reynolds’ feet. He had been having occasional panic attacks for years, but hadn’t put a name to the problem until that brutal summer. Frayed by touring and heavy professional expectations, he started self-medicating, which backfired massively.

The world was also spinning on its axis. Brexit. Trump. Terrorism. The steady dismantling of the NHS. The biting effects of austerity. The kind of social issues that have been Enter Shikari’s lifeblood for almost a decade now.

ENTER SHIKARI REVEAL NEW TRACK “SUPERCHARGE”

Featuring UK grime legend Big Narstie

British rock mavericks Enter Shikari have revealed the incredible new track “Supercharge” featuring grime legend Big Narstie. The single was premiered overnight on Annie Mac‘s BBC Radio 1 show as Hottest Record In The World and is out now on Play It Again Sam via Inertia Music.

The dynamic “Supercharge” was penned last Summer when lead singer Rou Reynolds and Big Narstie were introduced by mutual photographer friend Jordan Curtis Hughes. Reynolds then went on to produce the track, assisted by the bands live engineer Tim Morris and it was then mixed by David Kosten (Everything Everything / Bat For Lashes).

Reynolds said:

“I started writing a lot of new music at the start of 2016. ‘Supercharge’ emerged after a pretty vicious cull, and we began getting excited about it as touring started to quiet down later in 2016. Through mutual friends here in London we got in touch with Narstie, who came down and hung at the studio September, nailing his bars like a pro. I’m excited to get the track out into the world now.”
