God that was awful

such a shite band.

Not the worst thing I've heard...

But very close to it.

Better than 'Ghandi, Mate, Ghandi'.

Christ, now that was fucking dreadful.

I really liked the last album, but this isn't looking too well..

Yeah, that really was terrible.

Yeah this sounds over-produced to fuck, the live version sounded great.

What the fuck is that thing from 1:12 - 1:44 even, its ridiculous

I wouldn't mind so much if the vocalist didn't do his lame irrelevant rants with his shitty "badman" Laaaannndan accent,
he's not bad at screaming and the band are instrumentally quite proficient.

What have they done?! I mean, I loved the the live version, but here it sounds so... I dunno, stripped down. This doesn't sound like the band I've come to love, not at all.

no one will ever care about this band ever again unless they make another song with a clap-along

RULES

Nice to hear the actual album version, after hearing it live in october.

WHY DO ALL THESE PEOPLE COME OUT OF THE WOODWORK TO COMMENT ON NEW ARTICLES?

great song

new album gonna be fantastic

I love this band

I swear to God, if there is one more news article related to Enter Shikari this year I will kill someone.

they should have stayed with plan b

Let's agree you either love or hate Enter Shikari xD

SERIOUSLY THO WHERE DO THESE FUCKING PEOPLE COME FROM

it's afternoon in Holland, that's why I'm here

You don't know how many alts I have Martine hehehehehe

Your Enter Shikari ratings lose you respect, every single respect point you've ever had.

That was directed at the guy who has rated them 5, 4.5, 4, 4, 4 and 4.

A 5? That seems very excessive, even for a fan

:'(

Don't worry bro, we all have our guilty pleasures :]

I know, I know

I feel bad for liking their first 2 albums after hearing the shit they've been releasing lately.

I don't know. I dig the chorus, but the verse is kinda really bad ^^

no one will ever care about this band ever again unless they make another song with a clap-along[2]

best song they've released from the album so far but it still sucks

Too over-produced, and I'm so sick of the constan political bullshit in every song.
It was well balance in Common Dreads but now I'm far from excited for this album.

New direction sucks, i'll just keep clapping and headbanging to "Sorry.."

**Constant **Balanced

I've read a couple reviews for the album and all of them gave the album a 8/10 or higher. I'm really hoping they are right an not just writing shitty reviews

they're shitty reviews

yeah

Garbage. It's ridiculous that bands with much more talent (obscure/indie music that I discovered first before they got noticed) are ignored. All because people are too fucking lazy to look around & suffice for this mainstream talent- less trash.

Open your minds people, there's more out there than this mainstream trife.

Dare to be different.

Rating - 0/5



- Eons

Starting to think the new attack attack! Album will be better than this

the thing is that I think reviewers will automatically want to rate this highly just because it's "different" and "original", even if the actual music blows. same thing happened with Korn

This better not be The Path of Totality pt.2

Oh Eons you're so edgy and different. What else can you tell a site full of contrasting and diverse music fans?

I liked how it started, but right around 0:55... WTF?

Ranting + wub = wubtf

Eons is a troll right?

I wouldn't call Enter Shikari mainstream. I mean how many people out there listen to hardcore, screamo, post-hardcore rock whatever the eff you wanna call it. Now cut that number by 100% for those who ALSO like under-budget dubstep sprinkled all over the place. That should give you 0. But now you see, you need to add 10 people -- because Rue has an english accent, and that, even I must admit, is sexy.

Enter Shikari are pretty mainstream in terms of rock music here

Song isn't too bad; better than the last one.

Lol eons you're a douche, ES is hardly mainstream, when was the last time you saw/heard ES on the radio or television. Do you hear tons of kids talking about ES? Very doubtful, they play warped and that's really the only reasoning you could give as to why they're "mainstream"... you hipster douchebag. Anything and everything mainstream sucks right?

That being said... this was god awful. Needs moar claps. ES is killer live though

"when was the last time you saw/heard ES on the radio or television"
seen/heard them a lot

"Do you hear tons of kids talking about ES?"
they're one of the biggest rock bands amongst teenagers etc these days

in this country anyway

That was really bad.

Sorry, this one's not a winner

@anarchistfish

Really? What country are you in? Now I sound like a douche because I wasn't aware - regardless you shouldn't write something off just because it's mainstream and you listen to "obscure indie bands"

UK. they're pretty immense in their home nation. and I actually liked Common Dreads but this is horrid

You all know who Enter Shakiri are, that qualifies them as mainstream.

Thanks for the kind words btw! :-)

- Eons

Most of us also know who Laura Stevenson is. Is she mainstream, Eons?

Seriously, I want this band to get firebombed. They are the biggest pile of shit ever.

Hm, the songs on this album sounds like they should be listened collectively rather than on their own, I hope so anyone. Common Dreads seemed like a really broken album to me.

Song is a mess

They used to be pretty big in the UK a few years ago, but I havent heard much about them recently.

...probably because their new songs are dreadful.

it's really pretentious to sign your posts when your username is displayed to the right of your post

Clap Clap Clap

Posting my rant from Facebook that I posted upon hearing this song:

Man, this band got to Emmure status quicker than I could have even expected. I heard the line, "That's the sound of another door shutting in the face of progress" in this song. They got that right, at least; this sounds like something I would expect from an 'edgy' post-hardcore band in 2008. Oh hey, that little electronica wankering in the middle of the song? It's really fuckin' clever, not a single band has done something like that since dubstep became popular. /rant

csb.

fucking shit fuck

WHOAAAA bad

It makes me cringe how the vocalist constantly talks politics, when the bands music appeals mainly to an early-mid teens age range, just feels really 'for the sake of it' and lame.

wow that was fucking horrid

Love Enter Shikari. Love this song. Probably will love the album.

Hunk o' Ass

That song make me want to piss

way over produced, that snare sounded like shit.

Actually the whole song did.

I enjoyed it

I've seen them live, and it's amazing. You guys need to just be a bit more open. The production sucks on the album, but the material really grows on you. I really wouldn't be interested if they kept releasing their first album over and over.

I don't need to be "more open" to a giant pile of shit. How will it grow on us? We've all given Enter Shikari a listen, and the truth is, they suck ass.

Just because they're good live doesn't mean this is dreadful. Because it is man, it really sucks.

Do the Shikari shuffle... It makes everything better.

its like theyve cut up 3 different songs and pasted them together

After listening to the preview of the new album this is without a doubt the weakest track on the album.

God I love going to this website to find new bands and albums, but the people on here are fucking losers. Ranting on bands all the time acting like they have golden ears for music...Really what the fuck is wrong with people have some respect...
Enter SHikari is a band that stands for good things..they stand for a better world not some pussies crying over there girlfriends....Like honestly what is wrong with this band...NOTHING....ABSOLUTE NOTHING....Fucking pricks on here...Most of you are lonely losers that have nothing else to do except display hate...JESUS

TOmakaveto.....Honestly dude If you hate this band so much...why do you go on every enter shikari post and say something...I just had to say something because I see you being a faggot a lot.

kind of wish they'd get eaten by bears

I just get the feeling that they are so full of themselves.

^I've met them, and they are not full of themselves.
They're nice down to earth guys who don't take themselves too seriously

yeah, they come across as nice guys actually
