Enter Shikari’s forthcoming album “A Kiss For The Whole World” is fast approaching on the 21st April this year and they have given us another taste of what to expect in the form of new single “Bloodshot”. The song has a definite shift in tone from the previous singles yet keeps a lot of the familiar Shikari-isms we all know and love. “Bloodshot” has a moody, slightly solemn vibe to it yet still hits hard with some The Prodigy-esque electronics and big head bang moments that lay the bed for vocalist Rou Reynolds to address some true to life issues we all face with the spread of information online.

Speaking on the themes Rou says: “Every day, I seem to be asking myself, ‘Is this article biased?’, ‘Is this claim true?’, ‘Should I be more furious about this issue? Or less furious?’, ‘Am I being manipulated? Provoked? Radicalised by my own ‘tribe’?…Bloodshot is about how hard it is to find truth, and how easy it is to stop thinking for yourself and simply repeat your ‘team’s’ mantras… Everyone’s so fucking angry with everyone else and it’s exhausting. It seems like social media’s main purpose these days is to hypnotise us to hate.”
