The Entrance of Shikari


Enter Shikari are an English post-hardcore band, which makes heavy use of synthesised sound effects. The band has managed to gain some success within the music industry despite turning down offers from many of the large record companies, and instead deciding to 'go it alone' signed to their own independent record label Ambush Reality, with assistance from their distributor Vital

Official: N/A
Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/entershikari
Fan-base: http://www.entershikari.org/

Although some of the band's early shows were poorly received, the band soon gained a large fan base due to their frequent gigging and publicity using their MySpace page. Enter Shikari have performed over 650 gigs to date.

This band was introduced to me by someone very special overseas, since I love techno and metal they are perfect. If you are wondering what 'Shikari' means, it is 'hunter' in many eastern languages.

Okay, Time for Plan B (of Take to the Skies 2007):
