One thing amazes me about Enter Shikari, it's how they always give 110% on the stage, pushing themselves to give the best show possible, that's rare

[@mikeymums]

Mike Stankovich especially when that room was like 20x20 with no air filtration. The hottest little box and they still went %110. Gotta love it

[@jakeszmyt3883]

one thing that amazes me is Rory C's thesis hasnt changed

Enter Shikari are underrated, not for their music but for their ability to be grounded in reality. Demonstration: Rou stands with those he views as equals and encourages those around him to enjoy their existence in that moment right there and then.

[@pavelvedral7374]

After all these years, they still sound perfect live.

[@grantleach4064]

Facts man

[@lostinpark4782]

how are they not bigger in the USA , one of the best bands out there

[@r_o_y3419]

TBH rock music is kind of dead here. The only reason i heard of them is because of crash thompson/rock critic on youtube. rock radio still plays most of the stuff from the 90's and early 2000's,so you can't rely on it to hear new music.

[@jaded1885]

I've known them since Middle School and still haven't seen them live. I think if they toured here more they'd be bigger here.

[@noahsmith4505]

Marketing. The singer's voice is recognizably British. Not every American appreciates voices from other countries.

Ive been with them since they started I grew up in Los Angeles CA.seen them live 3 times and even met them! They are one of my top favorite bands of ever!

[@joeshifflett6253]

@@noahsmith4505 nah. That's bull. Cause bring me the horizon is really big here, breakdown of sanity (I know, different country) and architect's are huge here. I could name a few other bands not from the U.S that are really huge. And tbh, we love accents... specially the brih-ish. Lol

That's so fucking awesome to read. When did you jump off the Shikari ship? If it was relatively early on, then lucky you, you've got so much material to discover. :)

[@keanucarson]

@@hardroc You're shockingly correct, I gave up after the first record and seeing them at warped tour. I didn't understand the uk bass angle at all, in my dumb yank mind I thought they were biting off Skrillex. I get it now though, but more importantly I see that these guys really care about their music and message. Its more than just a product to them.

[@Ajf_24]

@@keanucarson Man, this does my heart well. Welcome back, friend! If there's two things this band has always stood for it's passion and community. Never once seen them falter, and I've been a fan since 2008!

@@keanucarson I was so gutted when I first heard common dreads when it was released learned to love it tho

[@anthonychurn6977]

@@keanucarson It's absolutely more than just a product for them. To echo Abe Foster's comments, they are very genuine, passionate about their music, and all about giving their fans an experience that transcends just a musical performance. My experience was similar to yours, but reverse. A friend showed me ES just before Common Dreads dropped. My thoughts were essentially, "..eh. Not my cup of tea" and brushed them off. A couple months later I saw them open for August Burns Red (if I recall correctly) and they just blew my mind.. enough that I went back and really listened to their music. Fell in love and have been a fan ever since. There is nothing quite like Enter Shikari's live performances.. they are in a league of their own.

[@dackattac]

Welling up a bit at Rou belting the chorus to Take My Country Back as he falls back into the arms of a bunch of Americans emphatically singing along because goddamn if we aren't all exhausted from uncannily similar shit. What an energy.

[@jacksonislegend]

I'll be damned if this isn't too true. I'm an American but we're dealing with the same type of wannabe fascist crap. Thankfully we just voted our orange dictator out of office. I'm hopeful that the UK can ditch Boris Johnson soon too. I'm surprised the Tories are still as popular as they are. It seems like progressive ideals should be winning out but the boomers are clinging to their antiquated ways of life like a cornered animal. A couple more decades and we should be rid of this crap.

I read this comment at 16:10, perfect timing for a heads up! My guy delivered a solid effort

[@creturahater]

He actually sang it better than Rou

[@Mr.M1STER]

He was in key and damn near hit every note which honestly is surprising given the adrenaline of being at the concert, not being able to hear yourself and also the randomness of just receiving a mic. As for 51:56.... I'll just let that speak for itself lol
