Enter Shikari Merch
Weird and hype may often have a somewhat negative connotation in the context of music. However, when those designations lead to serious success, things are different. Enter Shikari have been experimenting a lot with their music since the beginning. The group could be described as a visionary hybrid of existing genres such as trance and hardcore. The band themselves call their new creation of electronic rhythms and post-hardcore
trancecore.
The high-flyers of the music scene
The four musicians Roughton 'Rou' Raynolds, Chriss 'Batty C' Batten, Liam 'Rory' Clewlow and Rob Rolfe have been on the road together as Enter Shikari since 2003. Contrary to all the usual mechanisms of the local music industry, the guys from Albans got through the rise of social media to the forefront,
with the band initially attracting attention through their presence on MySpace, which was hugely important in the music world. They were quickly named the network's "Newcomer Band of the Year" in 2006.Their debut album TAKE TO THE SKIES followed in 2017. The debut sold over 250,000 copies and even went gold in the UK. Tours with Alexisonfire and
Billy Talent crowned their first big successes - and all that without a major deal. In the same year, the band played at festivals such as Rock am Ring and Full Force.
Enter Shikari as an established band in the scene
Two years later, the band released their second album, COMMON DREADS, and toured as the support act for
The Prodigy. This record is also one of the most successful in the band's history. The band made the Top 25 in Germany with their fourth album A FLASH FLOOD OF COLOR.
The follow-up THE MINDSWEEP even made it to number 17!On February 10, 2020, Enter Shikari released the single "The Dreamer's Hotel". The accompanying album NOTHING IS TRUE & EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE made it to number two in the UK charts. The band has not managed to do that with any previous album. Their joy of musical experimentation runs through the creative history of their singles and albums and paved the way for bands like Hackitvist, Don Bronco or
Attack Attack!
