ENTER SHIKARI ANNOUNCE SINGLE “THE SIGHTS”, TAKEN FROM TOP 5 ALBUM THE SPARK

US TOUR BEGINS JANUARY 2018!

“An almost faultless fifth album…” Sunday Times Culture (Dazzler of the Week)

“Enter Shikari’s most eclectic and accomplished album to date.” **** The Independent

“There is a new found clarity and focus here that suggests The Spark could be the album that cements them as one of the U.K’s biggest bands.” Evening Standard

“A tempestuous tribute to a world on fire…. a crossover classic.” **** NME

“The Spark is undoubtedly going to be one of the albums of the year.” KKKK Kerrang!

“… still entirely unique.” 8/10 Rocksound

“The Spark is the most daring thing Enter Shikari have ever done.” **** Upset

“Innovative post-hardcore quartet push their boundaries” The Guardian

“Different like never before.” **** Dork

“ … a brilliant, imperfect record that affects you in ways Enter Shikari never have before.” **** Drowned In Sound

ENTER SHIKARI will release single “The Sights” on December 15, 2017, taken from their critically acclaimed new album THE SPARK which entered the UK Chart at Number 5, released through Play It Again Sam/Ambush Reality. The band will perform the track as part of the Maida Vale session for BBC Radio 1’s Rock Day on October 31st, broadcast live on Annie Mac’s show from 7pm UK (or 2pm ET / 11am PT) that evening. The first single ‘Live Outside’ was B listed on BBC Radio 1. It can be listened to online live here.

“‘The Sights’ is a song about a fresh start and a new period in one’s life. It’s about the search for love and human connection, and all the emotions that brings; fear, self doubt, low self esteem, and loneliness, but also hope, self discovery, excitement and freedom.” (Rou Reynolds)

The huge British band who have returned with the album of their career, fronted by the charismatic Rou Reynolds (“… one of the most captivating frontmen in modern rock” Kerrang!), will play their huge UK and European Arena tour in November / December 2017, and come to North America in January for over two dozen shows, including DC’s 9:30 Club (1/28), Brooklyn’s Music Hall of Williamsburg (2/2), Chicago’s Metro (2/9) and Los Angeles’ El Rey (2/23). Full tour dates below.
