Enter Shikari are a British rock band formed in St Albans, Hertfordshire, England in 1999 under the name Hybryd by Chris Batten, Rou Reynolds, and Rob Rolfe. In 2003, Rory Clewlow joined the band and it adopted its current name. Enter Shikari's debut studio album, Take to the Skies, was released on 19 March 2007 and reached number 4 in the Official UK Album Chart; their second, Common Dreads, was released on 15 June 2009 and debuted on the UK Albums Chart at number 16; and their third, A Flash Flood of Colour, was released on 16 January 2012 and debuted on the chart at number 4. Enter Shikari then spent a considerable amount of time supporting the release through the A Flash Flood of Colour World Tour, before beginning work on a fourth studio album, The Mindsweep, which was released in January 2015. The band is named after Shikari, a boat belonging to vocalist Rou Reynolds' uncle, and has had the same four members since the addition of Clewlow in 2003.
It was score 22 days ago
since I carved you out of the finest pine
it's now my quest to find
all the splinters you gave that scar my mind
What would you rather be?
Hated and remembered?
or just forgotten?
When her last breath echoes "you complete me"
