There's an official, authorised Enter Shikari biography coming next month
Enter Shikari share details of their forthcoming biography, Standing Like Statues

Enter Shikari will release an official, authorised biography of their story so far on October 26.
Written by Kerrang! Editor Luke Morton and published by Faber Music, Standing Like Statues promises to be the definitive history of the St. Albans band, written in collaboration with the four band members and key members of their supporting team.
“It’s such a joy to now have our story thus far recorded forever,” says frontman Rou Reynolds. “Luke has done an incredible job of making sense of a band that’s not so easy to make sense of. Almost everything about this band is convoluted, unconventional or contradictory, but Luke has hacked his way through this jungle and created a clear – and, most importantly – entertaining path! He’s been there since pretty much the very beginning, and it’s an honour to have someone so passionate, adroit and empathetic tell our story up to this point, just as we’re taking our first tentative steps into ‘the next era’ of Enter Shikari."
We’re excited to announce the @fabermusicpublishing publication of ‘Standing Like Statues’, the Authorised Biography of Enter Shikari written by Luke Morton, out October 26th. Includes extensive exclusive interviews with the full band and team, and never-before-seen photos. (1/3) pic.twitter.com/dL9xlWNXaeSeptember 7, 2022
