St Albans based Enter Shikari have announced the release of their fourth studio album ‘Mindsweep’ which is due for release on January 19th in the UK through Ambush Reality/ Hopeless Records.
Frontman Rou Reynolds said “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!”
We can all hear the new album live when the band head out on tour covering Europe in full and then heading over to the UK in February.
