Enter Shikari have outlined the details of their latest album, recorded at Chapel Studios in Lincolnshire with producer Dan Weller.
‘The Mindsweep‘ is to be released on January 19th next year, and has been described by singer Rou Reynolds thus: “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.”
Enter Shikari head out on a tour of the UK in January 2015, starting at the Portsmouth Pyramids venue on the 16th.
