Enter Shikari
Members: Rou Reynolds, Rory Clewlow, Chris Batten and Rob Rolfe
Genre: Alternative - metal/hardcore/dance and anything in between
From: St Albans
Background: Formed in 2003 and started out playing at the Pioneer and The Horn and soon built up a reputation for their wild and energetic gigs. By November 2006 they became the first ever unsigned act to sell out the 2,000 capacity London Astoria - the first was The Darkness. They went on to win the NME John Peel award for music innovation and have notched up a number of other awards from Kerrang! Despite big offers from record companies they remain under their own independent label Ambush Reality. Their debut album Take to the Skies reached number four in the album charts and their latest offering Common Dreads has just been released (June 15). They are due to play some of the biggest music festivals this year including Glastonbury, Leeds and Reading.
