Does anybody else hear listen to Enter Shikari or am I the only one? XD I love their mix of rock & electro and the lyrics kick balls! Their current album "A flash flood of Colour" is great and I strongly recommend it!
I have their first records ( well, I think it's their first), with songs like "Sorry, You're not a winner", or "Ok, time for plan B" or "Mothership". It kicks ass! It's freaking violent at moments, but there's also the whole atmospheric thing which is going on. Perfect mix for me. As you said, I recommend it too!
You should really get their recent stuff. In my opinion their last two records were better than the first one, so make sure to check them out if you haven't already. I bet you'll like them.
They're alright. They're one of the few bands that can pull off the metalcore/post-hardcore/electronica genre without sounding like every other band that does the same exact thing.
Utterly brilliant band! Take to the Skies was a breathe of fresh air to me and I really enjoyed that album at that precise time! With their second effort, Common Dreads, I really loved listening to their remixes that High Contrast, Mistabishi and Rout did with the album tracks almost as much as the originals! But for me A Flash Flood of Colour is epic. Its a unique blend of more mature, 'grown-up', sounding music (see 'Constellations') mixed with the crazy off the wall stuff they made first time round in 2007 (see 'Gandhi Mate, Gandhi!' and 'Arguing with Thermometers') To this day I believe they have one the best line in a song ever and it hasn't been bettered yet.. "Yabba Dabba DOO ONE!" haha 10/10 if you ask me! thoroughly worth a listen!!
Yay! Enter Shikari! One of my fav. bands. Been listening to them since TTS. The new album "AFFOC" is extremely kickass.
