Is there anyone we can rule out for next year yet?

[justanothername]

People'll always complain, whoever's booked..

Saw Shikari Sound System at their first ever gig at the Electrowerks. Fantastic. Want them in a small tent somewhere when the hipsters/chavs are elsewhere watching someone else

[Dead throne]

Good point! I thought the line up this year was amazing but everyone was bitching and moaning about it!

My brothers mate saw them and he is a huge fan (3rd biggest after me and another mate) and he said it was disappointing but I have to see it for myself though as I went to Biffy as from what I read I thought it wasn't going to be amazing.

[Com Truise]

Apperently they got quite a big crowd at reading/Leeds aswell, which is a big shocking because, well, Biffy.

[Dead throne]

It's not really that shocking though, Biffy are the least popular headliner, and acts like alt-j still got a big crowd against Eminem

[Com Truise]

hm interesting, as there was a lot of moaning when they got announced (ESS)

[justanothername]

yeah because it's stupid af in my opinion this "electronic alter-ego", and the teaser sounded shite

but clearly me, and the majority of this forum are in the minority. All of my mates are Shikari fans and went to see them, and there are plenty of other Shikari fans who just lap up everything they do

[Dead throne]

I'm a huge Shikari fan (7 posters in my room, next most has 4) and I didn't think much of the teaser apart from Can You Feel My Heart remix but even I don't follow but I have already seen them (Best gig I've ever been to mind you) so I wanted to see Biffy.

I was one of them, I don't want the phonies!!!

[Dead throne]

or did I go 'too far'? l0l

[Matt42]

Im worried this enter shikari hiatus is going to absolutely ruin them....

I'm scared a bloc party is gonna happen again...

Shikari hiatus?

What?

[Dead throne]

I was a huge Shikari fan, now I'm just an average Shikari fan because as a band they've started to get on my nerves, and they're consistently rude to fans. Their latest tracks haven't done much for me either. Saw them last year and it was phenomenal, but Biffy would win out any day. Biffy are easily the best band I've ever seen now.

I did like Paddington Frisk but it got boring quickly because it's pretty short. Radiate is balls.

This, except for the last 2 sentences. the Paddington Frisk was quite good though...Radiate was awfull.

[Com Truise]

I thought that Radiate was amazing and that Paddington was the worse out of the two. End of the day I bum Shikari so I wouldn't know if it was shit!

[justanothername]

Radiate's lyrics are what make it shit for me. "To keep us from falling apart we'll write songs in the dark" are almost as bad as "it's two thousand and thirteen, all across the galaxy"

Better than Wall

"I'm gonna paste you and cover you up in wall paper, screw shelves into you and call you a wall"

They had the idea about making a metaphor in the song but they took it too far! Still love both songs mind you

At least it's not boring political shit

[alex28]

Shikari are taking a break to write new material but I don't think they'll be gone for too long. I think their new stuff is really good and I thought the last album was brilliant. I like how they adapt and mix up their music instead of churning out the same kinda stuff too. A lot of people hating on them for the political stuff which I can understand but I take it with a pinch of salt.

[Yellow_Fellow]

"Enter Shikari should stop writing about political shit"

"Political shit is boring"

"Where's the new RATM album?"

"I want Tom Morello to be inside of me"

- eFestivals, 2013

[mrtourette]

I want Tom Morello to put his political shit inside of Enter Shikari.
