What IS Shikari Soundsystem?

[Com Truise]

Yeah someone needs to elaborate on that, probably a way of getting Shikari to play without saying Shikari are playing again... again

To answer the Shikari Sound System question:

Enter Shikari unveil…

SHIKARI SOUND SYSTEM

At this year’s Reading / Leeds Festival, SHIKARI SOUND SYSTEM will make its world debut headlining the Lock-Up Stage on FRIDAY 23rd (Leeds) and SUNDAY 25th (Reading) August.

Shikari Sound System is the electronic alter-ego of the British band Enter Shikari, famous for blurring the lines between musical genres across three (thus far) UK chart top 5 albums since they hit the wider public consciousness in 2006.

Having DJed and produced in various side projects over the years they finally decided to fully elope with live dance music, and so was born the Shikari Sound System.

For further explanation, let’s hear it from the horse’s mouth ;

“Expect re-worked Enter Shikari tracks along with classic remixes and new surprises. Expect eerie live electronics and tent-peg-dislodging basslines. Expect a tour through many dance tempos and electronic genres that have been a constant inspiration to our band’s sound.

Combining both live instruments and percussion with dub-plate wizardry, this is one for the skankers, the steppers, the movers and the shakers.”

Enter Shikari have a deep history with the Reading / Leeds Festival – attending as teenagers, and having played the festival five times in the past seven years – and so embraced the opportunity to return once again, albeit in ‘disguise’.

Lock Up looks so shit :-( Gutted. I was comfortable having spent £200 on a ticket on the grounds that there'd at least be a couple of bands I wanted to see on Lock Up. Nope :-(

Same here. I'll see Quicksand, maybe Alkaline Trio and The Bronx. The rest I either have no knowledge of or don't care about.

[edgar]

King prawn???

[Ipayne]

I'm probably going to watch abit of Eminem then go to watch Tomahawk, not sure I could cope with a whole Eminem set

[dentalplan]

Isn't Alkaline Trio/Green Day a bit of an annoying clash for pop-punk fans? Surely Green Day against Tomahawk or the other thing would have been better?

[insideaway]

Pure Love/FFAF/Biffy is a gutting clash!

[Muppetmark]

@OfficialRandL tweeted confirming that the two will not clash. That either means Lock Up headliner yet to be announced above them, or that the Lock Up will finish earlier that night
