Following the 'Radio One A-listed', 'Top 30', '' single “Juggernauts”, the genre-shattering, 'just missed out on Top 10 because we only went and forgot about Father’s Day’ and the "must get last-minute dad-rock Best Of" skewing effect is has on the charts (my father lives in Norway and doesn't 'do' Father's Day... that's MY excuse, anyway. Can't speak for everyone else) album “Common Dreads”, and the band's first ever Glastonbury performance, we launch upon the airwaves the second Enter Shikari single of 2009... the very mighty “No Sleep Tonight”. (That was a long sentence, wasn't it?).
The single hits record store / iTunes etc on Monday 17th August, just prior to the band's debut main stage Reading / Leeds performances, and comes backed with an array of (even if we do say so ourselves) particularly awesome remixes... namely three slabs of drum'n'bass from The Qemists, Hospital Records' Mistabishi, and Enter Shikari's own Rout, plus a pop electro mix from teenage Kent duo Lightsgoblue. A fancy bundle of the formats (which also includes a nice little “No Sleep Tonight” condom) is currently available for pre-order from the store at Get latest news, blogs+videos and buy exclusive music+merch at the official site // entershikari.com.
A video for “No Sleep Tonight” has been filmed and is ready to be seen by public eyes. It was directed by Shane Davey (who was also responsible for the “Juggernauts” video). It will be placed in all the places music videos go, but if you would rather have it delivered to your computer just have a word with whoever sent you this rambling missive.
A UK tour was announced last week, with a number of venues (including the 2900 capacity Roundhouse in London) selling half their tickets in the first 5 days of sale thus far.
Enter Shikari have also been announced as nominees in the categories of Best British Band and Best Live Band in the 2009 Kerrang! Awards. Nice.
