A year since the release of their album A Kiss for the Whole World, Enter Shikari have announced a new companion record Dancing On The Frontline. The new record brings together remixes, non-album singles – featuring Wargasm, Cody Frost, AViVA, Fever 333’s Jason Aalon Butler, and others – plus live recordings from the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show and Future Sounds shows. It comes out June 07th via So Recordings. The band have released the opening track, a Shikari Sound System remix of “Goldfish,” along with a visualizer video.

Talking about the new release, lead singer and producer Rou Reynolds says:
“We’re exactly one year on from the release of A Kiss For The Whole World, so it feels like the right time to present all our outputfrom this crazy year, along with some new treats, all in one place. We’ve not had a lot of time or energy to do any Shikari Sound System mixes for a while, so it was great to be able to step back into that chair and remix “Goldfish” and “Bloodshot.” We tested out the “Goldfish” rework live on our UK & European tour and insanity ensued.”

In October the band will bring special guests You Me At Six out on the road with them, as they journey through North America on
what will be You Me At Six ‘s final ever shows in the continent, ahead of their split in 2025.
Talking about the upcoming tour, Reynolds continues:
“In October, Enter Shikari bring special guests You Me At Six to the states for a fresh headline run. “North America has always been difficult for Shikari, long tours, thousands of miles, and playing venues smaller than most of the other rooms we get to visit around the world. But we’ve always kept returning because there’s a real zest and passion from our audience out there, even if fewer people ‘get us’. Recently things seem to have begun sizzling a bit more for us, with more shows selling out and more intensity in the crowds. So it’s some reward for our tenacity that we’re returning in October for what will be our biggest ever North American headline tour. And that will be made all the sweeter by being able to bring our friends You Me At Six with us for this one. We’ve known each other a long time, but somehow only ever played a couple of shows together, so the fact that they’re joining us for what will be their last ever USA & Canada tour really means something to us.”
Australian pop-punks Yours Truly will also be joining the tour as openers on all dates.
