Enter Shikari

Musical Group

English band from St Albans known for blending metalcore/post-hardcore with electronic and dance influences.

Debut studio album: Take to the Skies (2007). The band is noted for fusing heavy guitars and electronic elements; reviews on DeBaser cover several of their major albums.

Reviews praise Enter Shikari's early fusion of heavy guitars and dance electronics but give mixed-to-negative responses to later, more electronic or trend-driven albums. Take to the Skies and Common Dreads receive appreciation for energy and innovation; A Flash Flood Of Colour and The Mindsweep draw criticism for perceived lack of ideas or over-reliance on trends.

For:Listeners who like a mix of heavy rock and electronic music; readers interested in critical takes on musical evolution and trends.

 There is no evolution without mutation.

 Ok, I admit it, adolescence is over and it has taken many things with it.

 But who cares, since Rou Reynolds and co. will continue to be praised by critics, convinced they've found the new messiahs of music, but just go beyond appearances to understand that you're dealing with an album hiding a rare lack of ideas.
