Enter Shikari announce new single and video

New single ‘Torn Apart – 8th June


‘Best British Band’ and ‘Best Single’ nominations at Kerrang! Awards

Enter Shikari this week release a video for the track ‘Torn Apart’, directed by Mike Tyler who was also responsible for the video for the band’s previous single ‘Anaesthetist’.
Check it out here:

The track is the third “proper” single from the UK Top 10 album ‘The Mindsweep’, and follows hot on the heels of the announcement of Enter Shikari’s nominations for ‘Best British Band’ and ‘Best Single’ (for ‘Anaesthetist’) in this year’s Kerrang! Magazine Awards.

‘The Mindsweep’ was released in January 2015 through Ambush Reality / Play It Again Sam Recordings and is the fourth full-length studio album from Enter Shikari since forming at school in 2003. Since the album’s release, the band have undertaken a sold out UK tour (that culminated in two nights at London’s Roundhouse) and comprehensive treks around both Europe and North America. They are just about to embark on a tour of Australia and their eighth trip to Russia, before beginning an exhausting UK / European festival season that will see them headline the Second Stage at Download Festival, headline NASS Festival, and play headline / high-profile slots at the likes of Glastonbury, T In The Park, Rock Am Ring / Im Park (Germany), Frequency (Austria), Werchter (Belgium), Sziget (Hungary), Kubana (Russia) and Lowlands (Holland) amongst many many more.
