Hear track from 4th album The Mindsweep ahead of UK tour

Enter Shikari have launched a stream of their track The Last Garrison.

It’s taken from upcoming fourth album The Mindsweep, set for release via their own label Ambush Reality on January 19.

Frontman Rou Reynolds recently said of the follow-up to 2012’s A Flash Flood Of Colour: “We pushed ourselves with some of the rawest angriest vocals we’ve ever done, as well as some of the most dulcet and delicate. It’s even more diverse than normal – we’ve built more confidence and fearlessness to widen our influences.

“Melody and aggression will always be an important side of what we do, but there’s also an effort to concentrate on texture too.”

Enter Shikari tour the UK in February:
