Artist News Gigs & Festivals Releases
Enter Shikari team up with Wargasm for new single
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 12 August 2022
Enter Shikari have released their first new music in nearly three years, a collaboration with Wargasm called ‘The Void Stares Back’.
“It is with elation, and more than a little nervousness, that we release this; our first track after over two years of dormancy”, says vocalist Rou Reynolds.
“It is a roisterous journey made all the more so with the addition of our friends Wargasm”, he adds. “Thematically, the piece is about the forward march of social progress, and how, often, those with a more conventional archaic outlook on sexuality, gender, social design, economics etc, see those with differing ideas like bewildering, depraved creatures from another dimension”.
Wargasm add: “Shikari were a big part of our growing up, so it was an absolute honour to be asked to collaborate with such an incredible and well-spoken band. They stand for the right things – we’re a little more pessimistic. It was fun playing the darker devil’s advocate to Rou’s light. Where we’re going, you won’t need eyes to see…”
Enter Shikari are set to play the Reading and Leeds festivals later this month. Listen to ‘The Void Stares Back’ here.
