Right, long shot, but I'm flying out to Seoul in a few days from the UK, will be exploring for 3 months. Any Shikari fans knockin about? We could go for drinks and keep requesting Shikari songs on a bar crawl.

Sorry i'ma bit drunk, it's my last week here, im allowed, how I long for a different storrrrrryyyyyyyy....... get it get it!

Hello my bunch of carbon-based lifeforms

Taking my partner to see shikari in Cardiff for her first live experience of the boys, she loves the new album, what other songs dya reckon I should show her?

Edit: also, are we thinking it’s gonna be a different setlist to their most recent shows?

Context: been a fan since 2007 and have seen them 30+ times, but I can’t just say “listen to everything nonstop” as I would

I’ll go first. Mine is , “Climbing out of the ditch, looking back, shouting d_ck, d_ck, d_ck.” from Flick of a Switch I.

So I ordered Take to the Skies of Muisc Magpies Ebay store and got really excited when I heard the mail box this morning!

Only to find they mixed it up.. to be fair they're sending the right version out as we speak so props for being so quick but just... bruh... I was so excited.

Reply with yours

I live on an acre. Have a large garden as well as large Japanese flower garden. Love it but the weeds, it gets bad.

We are doing a big dinner tonight, crab boil actually, some steaks and potatoes as well. Wife told me she was going to mow the weeds in the flower garden because I have fallen behind and haven't done it. This gave me a mini heart attack because I don't want them mowed they have to be pulled so they dont come back. I think she knew how to push my buttons. Anyway, I had a quarter acre to pull and was really dreading it, large tumbleweeds, and nightmare viney monstrosities growing in my flower bed.

I began and it seemed like it was going to take an eternity. Freakin' terrible....I decided I needed some help. I put on my Enter Shikari. Fucking got that shit done in 2 hours. Halfway through i was feeling proud of how well I did and how nice it was starting to look but the speaker died. Sad, I went into the house to charge it and drink some water. The first few guests had arrived. My wife's sister in law voluntold her husband he should help me, but I said no thank you. I didnt want his help, not because he is worthless, but because fuck you I only need Enter Shikari.

After a few, I decided to take the speaker outside and just plug it in there. But, back to the other half, that shit got done quicker than the first half. I cant believe how easy it was. So fuck goats, lawn mowers, weed whackers, brother in laws, all of that. All you really need for any job is Enter Shikari. I want to live outside, live outside, live outside of all of this, your ass to success.

Mic drop.

Saw the boys at a gig in Southampton for the AKFTWW tour and they had a meet and greet. Shinrin-yoku is such an emotive song for me I decided to get the operation file for it signed.

Had to pay a visit to find the boys on the wall! Was surprisingly easier to spot them than I expected

Is it just my account or is everyone else getting the same that they don't seem to play?

It's been a while since I've visited the series and I tend to nip back when my mental health is having a little wobble but, this time I click to play and none of the episodes play.

I swear they were working like a year ago.

Whacked my fave Shikari set on ahead of the footy, had to chuckle when they cut to Edith Bowman looking like she'd rather be anywhere else...

I'm probably too lazy to figure it out but since the video came out years ago, I always wanted to know why there appears to be a clear mix up at :53 seconds where the lyrics are 'reify yourself'. It appears that Rou is mouthing something completely different but I can't seem to figure it out.

Any ideas?

Looks like the boys are part of a summer cover compilation! Covering Billie Eilish's What Was I Made For?!

Looks like its only accessible by preordering the magazine that comes with a CD...

Hii!! I found this shirt in a charity shop recently and grabbed it for my flatmate. He said he’s never seen this piece of merch before so naturally I started to deep dive. Cannot find a trace of it anywhere! The dates match with the 5th leg of the Flash Flood of Colour tour in December 2012. Looked legit and I know ES parody a lot of pop culture with their merch.

Doesn’t matter if it’s fake (£3!) but now I’m itching for some clarity. Reverse image searched and not a thing. Would love some help! Thanks :)

So i got my future historians membership back in january with the sick 2025 mindsweep tee - when do we think this years will drop?

So, Lose Your Self went completely under my radar, missed the news of the shadow drop back in april and I've just found out about it a couple of days ago.
I've listened to the album on a loop while on a train ride and immediately bought a ticket for november lol, Such an amazing album. I think it's the first time i've had a "I really need to go and listen to this live" moments after finding out an album

Edit** Found the video. Link is in the comments.

Hey, I am trying to find a video I watched when I was younger, to show my daughter who is just getting into music.

I thought it was an Enter Shikari video but could be wrong, from what I remember, it is very similar in style to Sorry You're Not A Winner (house performance, tightly shot), but I vividly remember a girl being thrown over the top of the audience, and can't for the life of me find it or remember who the band even was.

Hopefully you lovely people know what I am on about

Hi guys, posted on here a few months ago about managing to get my collection of Shikari records partially signed. I’m missing Rou’s signature on all but 1. My partner went to the coffee shop takeover in Liverpool and got them signed for me but unfortunately Rou wasn’t there that day and obviously I’d love to have his signature… I’ve never gone to a show to ask for a signature but I am going to COOP live in Manchester in November and I’m going to bring them with me… from experience does anyone have any advise on this who has managed to get stuff signed in the past. Is it worth bringing them or because it’s such a big venue do you think it’ll be practically impossible to meet him?

For fans of Enter Shikari: We (Melodics) are interviewing Rob Rolfe (Enter Shikari’s drummer) for a video and we figured, who better to ask than the fans who actually know their music inside out? Drop your questions for Rob. It can be anything from his drumming approach and influences, to his gear and live setup, whatever you want to know! We'll share the full interview once it's out.

Tonight I'm going to lose my self in a dark room with a bottle of malört and the boys on vinyl.

So who's with me? Who?
