After releasing the short but sweet ‘The Paddington Frisk‘ back in April, Enter Shikari is back with another single, this time in the form of ‘Radiate‘.
If ‘The Paddington Frisk‘ was designed as a taster to whet our appetites, then it definitely did the trick as we’ve now been served up an absolute feast in ‘Radiate‘. Explosive right from the start, I can definitely see ‘Radiate‘ becoming an absolute live favourite with its mix of electronic excitement and powerful instrumental progression. ‘Radiate‘ is without doubt a track that is made to get people dancing; Rou Reynolds’ lyrical prowess really hits us in the middle of the track and has us gripped with his whispered words of wisdom, ultimately though it’s the track’s high tempo sections that people will love the track for and the reason why they’ll be screaming to hear this one when seeing the band live in action.
‘Radiate‘ is a really impressive single from Enter Shikari, a track that just seems to keep getting better with each and every listen and a piece of music that’ll no doubt do the band’s huge reputation no harm. In this single the band seems to have captured a great deal of what makes them such a special live act; it’s explosive, it’s genre defying, and most of all it’s a massive amount of fun. Give ‘Radiate‘ a listen right now and prepare to be impressed.
