Enter Shikari have claimed number 2 in the UK Official Charts this week with critically acclaimed new album ‘Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible’, making it their highest ever chart position, as well as number 1 in the OOC Cassette and Rock Charts.
The band lost out only to Gerry Cinnamon, who scored the top spot with ‘The Bonny’. This marks Enter Shikari’s fifth Top 10 album of their career joining 2007’s debut ‘Take To The Skies, ‘A Flash Flood Of Colour’ (2012), ‘The Mindsweep’ (2015) and ‘The Spark’ (2017).
’Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible’, released on So Recordings, is a punk, electronic, orchestral opus produced by Rou Reynolds the frontman at the centre of this pioneering and uncompromising musical force.
Reynolds commented: “We’re rather fucking jubilant about our album ‘Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible’ landing at #2 this week. We always try to make albums with breadth of emotion & character, and expression of musical agility, and on release of every album we wonder again if that’s really something you expect to see in the upper reaches of the proper album chart anymore. Each time, we’re delighted to discover that there’s still a place for those qualities. We’re here to pull back the blinkers. To open minds. It’s a victory for independent music, and for forward thinking music.”
