Enter Shikari have lined up dates for a new tour early next year.
The St Albans four-piece will head to Portsmouth, Cardiff, Wolverhampton, Manchester, Glasgow, Middlesborough, Cambridge, Norwich and London between February 16 and 26 as part of new European ramble in support of their upcoming new album, 'The Mindsweep'. Tickets are on sale at 9am on October 10.
Set for a UK release on January 19, 'The Mindsweep' was once again recorded with Dan Weller and mixed by Jeremy Wheatley. Here’s what frontman Rou Reynolds had to say about it:
“We pushed ourselves vocally with some of the rawest angriest vocals we’ve ever done as well as some of the most dulcet and delicate. It’s even more diverse than normal as we’ve built more confidence and fearlessness to widen our influences further. Melody and aggression will always be an important side of what we do, but with this album there was also a concerted effort to concentrate on texture too. Alongside the core of our guitar, bass, drums, electronics set-up, there’s so much new instrumentation and orchestration. Writing for and recording woodwind, brass and strings was so rewarding and really felt like it brought a new dimension to the music. Just can’t wait to play these songs live now!”
