Background notes
Archive material and source history
Enter Shikari formed in St. Albans, England in 1999 with Rou Reynolds on vocals, Rory Clewlow on guitar, Chris Batten on bass, and Rob Rolfe on drums. Their debut album 'Take to the Skies' came out in 2007, mixing electronica with metalcore and post-hardcore elements. Early songs like '...And Just When I Thought I Had It All Figured Out' and 'Dead Men' showed their approach from the start.
Their lyrics often touched on political themes, which drew some criticism around 2009. They kept writing about animal rights and environmental issues anyway. The band released several more albums including 'Common Dreads' in 2009 and 'A Flash Flood of Colour' in 2012, working in hip-hop and dubstep sounds alongside their rock foundation.
They've put out six studio albums total, with tracks like 'Attitude' and 'Copycat' showing their range. The lineup has stayed the same since the beginning, which is unusual for a band that's been around this long.
