Enter Shikari is a British rock band that has been pushing the boundaries of genre and style since their formation in 2003. Hailing from St Albans, Hertfordshire, the group consists of Rou Reynolds (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards, programming), Liam "Rory" Clewlow (guitar, backing vocals), Chris Batten (bass, backing vocals), and Rob Rolfe (drums, percussion). Renowned for blending post-hardcore with various types of electronic music such as drum & bass, dubstep, and trance, Enter Shikari creates an energetic and unique soundscape that has captivated a global audience. Their name, derived from a boat owned by Reynolds' uncle, signifies the band's ethos of exploration and adventure.

Enter Shikari's career is marked by a fiercely independent approach to music production and distribution, often opting to release music through their own label, Ambush Reality. They've gained a reputation for electrifying live performances and a relentless touring schedule, which has helped build a dedicated fan base around the world. Their catalogue showcases a band unafraid to tackle political and social issues, with lyrics that confront climate change, mental health, and societal unrest. Enter Shikari’s relentless innovation is reflected in their recent releases like "STRANGERS," "The Void Stares Back," and the reflective "Moratorium (Broadcasts From The Interruption)," which offers a look at their work during the challenging times of the global pandemic. Their ability to evolve while remaining true to their core sound continues to define Enter Shikari as one of the most exciting and important bands in modern rock music.
