Rou - Vocals, Electronics
Chris - Bass, Vocals
Rory - Guitar
Rob - DrumsAfter years of playing together and experimenting, Enter Shikari was born in
the summer of 2003. All its members hail from St. Albans, a city plagued by
elitism and depressed by dispute. These four guys have been friends for many
years and they combine each individual’s own influences, to form a sound that is
truly original, a word that is thrown around far too much these days.
People are constantly trying to pigeon hole Enter Shikari but always find it
very hard; Enter Shikari simply mix traditional aspects of modern Rock music
with other genres such as Dance, Euphoria, Trance and Electronica. The Result is
a marriage of passionate rock music with both atmospheric electronics and cheeky
dance synths. Whilst keeping the honesty and unifying sense of hardcore, Enter
Shikari play progressive rock, with an experimental attitude.
Live, you witness such a passion in the music that you can’t help but feel
involved. With an incredibly intense stage presence that reflects the euphoric
aspects of the music, they are definitely a live band. With 3 CD’s under their
belt, (the newest of which was recorded with Mark Williams @ Criterion Studio’s)
and their first UK tour a great success, Enter Shikari look towards the summer
to continue their invasion of the UK.
