The Mindsweep

Released

With The Mindsweep, Enter Shikari signaled their impending transition from screaming post-hardcore-with-dubstep-tendencies to a more melodic hard-rock/pop-metal style. Make no mistake, there’s still plenty of screaming here: the album’s single “The Last Garrison” opens with a bellow (“Can you hear the war cry?”) and then gradually slides into a well-harmonized chorus, and that sort of sets the template for the album as a whole. Check out this album, but also find some way to experience the live show.
