Yep, it's one of their best for sure.

TTTS or Mindsweep will always be my favourites of theirs, Common Dreads is my least favourite. This and Flash Flood kinda tie, depends on my mood, AFFOC is one of their most fun, this is one of their most introspective

saw them live at my uni the other day. they played zzzonked, was cool because the vid for that is was filmed in the same place years ago.



palaye royale who are supporting fucking suck tho. black peaks were ok but im not a big fan.



also palaye royale have been receiving some hate on the tour funnily enough

This is by no means their worst album, come on! Revisiting and it holds up to my score perfectly.

The only thing I come back to on this album is Rabblerouser. Nothing else really jumps out to me on here. Sad cause I love all their other albums.

saw them live recently as well, new stuff goes surprisingly hard. setlist is incredible as well, a lot of common dreads in there

tbh i was a bit disappointed, had different expectations. they remix a lot of their stuff and switch songs on the fly...it's kinda cool but yeah really not what I expected. also rou was less energetic than I expected. he still did a good job but it seemed like he maybe catched a bit of a cold...other band members helped out a lot with the vocals, dunno.

yeah i get that, i liked this show better than the original spark headliner though. did you catch them after the tilburg date? bc rou sprained his ankle during live outside, which might explain his lack of energy haha

The quickfire rounds are fun but a little jarring when out of the blue it's like 'oh it's a new song already?' when you just in the middle of the last one. Not sure if I'd rather motherstep or mothership/insomnia though

Saw them this week so yeah, he even wore a bathrobe and pyjama pants so maybe that look added to my impression. He still did a great job, particularly when performing Airfield his voice was on point. In retrospective I like the approach they take. They give you an experience not recreatable by just listening to their albums, so you gotta see them live. But when I was there and simply expected them to jam some of my favourite songs, it felt kinda disappointing. Particularly when they switch the song right before cool moments like the heavy ending on Anaesthetist or the rapid middle part on Ghandi Mate, Ghandi. Also no Destabilise.



Oh and liked that Rou said "We are Enter Shikari and we are from Europe."!

"hello carbon based life forms"



i think i've seen them 4 times now and only caught destabilise once, which i quite like as it makes experiencing it all the more special. same goes for when they played slipshod last week which was incredible, will probably be the only time i'm ever hearing that one live haha.

They swapped out slipshop for rat race when I was them this tour, which I didnt mind as I feel that gets played a lot less.

Don't know why they played revolt of the atoms though, such a lame song with no vibe
