Enter Shikari have got their new album Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible raring to go on April 17th, and today they’ve released another single from it.

“The King is about the fervent, rushed desire we as humans often have for revenge,” Rou Reynolds says of the track. “It’s almost a lesson in patience and forgiveness. Not just lyrically, but also because of how much of a struggle this boisterous track was to make. The fiddly detail in the drum production, the weird guitar tones, the five different choruses I went through before finding the right one! We’re glad we stuck with it and tamed this beast and can’t wait to play it live.”

The band play European dates next month including UK shows in Sheffield, Glasgow, Liverpool, London and Bristol, and will head over to New York for a sold-out gig at the Mercury Lounge on May 12th.
