THURSDAY 19th MAY!
stick that in your diary, because that’s the day thenew Enter Shikari single is released!
Its entitled ‘Quelle Surprise’ and it was recorded in London with Dan Weller at the controls.
And then, for mixing, it was sent to Canada… where it was placed in the expert hands of Mike Fraser – who has previously mixed such little local bands as AC/DC, Metallica, Glassjaw, Biffy Clyro, Franz Ferdinand and a whole heap of others.
A very limited edition 2×7″ (one red vinyl, one white vinyl) pack of the EP will be released on Monday 11th July.
We’ll have more news on that sooner or later.
ALSO released on Monday 11th July is the long-awaited live document
‘Live From Planet Earth (Bootleg Series Vol.3)’.
This is a lavish CD + 2xDVD release in a nice digipack sleeve.
It consists of:
CD – ‘Live at Hatfield. Christmas 2010′
+ DVD 1 – ‘Live At Hatfield. Christmas 2010′ + ‘Live At Camden Underworld. August 2010′.
+ DVD 2 - ‘Fizzy Water & Spikey Blankets (A Weekend In Russia. May 2010)’ + ‘Live At Hammersmith. February 2010′ + ‘Live At Summersonic, Tokyo. August 2009′.
As well as containing the standard version of the ‘Live From Planet Earth’ set, the box also holds :
DVD 3 – which compiles archive footage recorded by the band, crew, family & friends next to professionally shot footage from all over the world. WARNING… ONLY available as part of this box set.
some of this footage dates back as far as 2005 (!!) and includes songs long lost into the mists of time.
+ ‘Images From Planet Earth’ – a 60 page photo scrapbook of shots taken around the world. Backstage, onstage, in the van, drunk, asleep.. no corner of the ‘live on the road’ experience has been left untouched. Again… ONLY available as part of this box set.
+ an Enter Shikari laminate that will, over time, occasionally allow special discounts / surprises when presented at the merch desk at shows (we’re still figuring out how this will work practically. We’re getting there, but aren’t 100% on top of it yet).
Yep, its… ONLY available as part of this box set.
as either…
a) some kind of ‘warm-up’ for the Amsterdam show on Friday 17th June (http://www.entershikari.com/shows/gigdetails/17-jun-11-enter-shikari-melkweg/).
b) a send-off, knees-up with friends & family before heading out on this years Vans Warped Tour across North America for two whole months!
c) a celebration of returning home from Thailand with – hopefully – a finished album #3 ‘in the can’.
d) a party for Rory’s birthday.
e) all of the above.
We are pleased to announce a one-off *VERY* intimate show at
London’s CAMDEN DINGWALLS on WEDNESDAY 15th JUNE!
Tickets are available for £15 + booking fee from MIDDAY on Saturday 14th May, ONLY from www.entershikari.com.
The show is strictly 16+ (which will be strictly ID’d), and tickets will be sold on a ‘maximum of 2 tickets per person only’ basis only (we are determined that there will be ZERO tickets touted at extortionate prices for this show. Any tickets we find on Ebay / Seatwave or any other ticket tour sites etc will be cancelled before the event. those ticket holders will NOT get in and will have to get a refund from the ticket tout. We’re sick of fans being ripped off. If anything about this aspect of the thing is causing confusion, then please drop a line toinfo@entershikari.com for more detailed explaination).
NB: There’ll only be 350 tickets on sale, so being quick off the mark is recommended.
