Shot in South London by Jasper Visuals, the video brings a raw, urban energy to one of the album’s standout tracks, further expanding on the record’s themes of uncertainty, disillusionment and resilience.

In a bold move that caught fans off guard, the band recently released Lose Your Self without any prior singles or promotional rollout—delivering the 12-track record in full across both digital and physical formats. The album explores heavy subject matter, from societal collapse to personal struggle, but retains the band’s core message of hope and forward momentum.

Frontman Rou Reynolds emphasised the intention behind the release strategy, explaining that the band wanted listeners to experience the record as a complete journey, free from preconceptions or fragmented previews. It’s a statement move from a band long known for pushing against industry norms and expectations.

The release has been met with immediate fan enthusiasm, with tickets for a trio of intimate album launch shows selling out within seconds. The band are set to perform at small-capacity venues including The Cavern Club, The Fighting Cocks and Signature Brew—offering a rare chance to see Enter Shikari up close as they debut new material live.

Looking ahead, the band have also announced their most ambitious UK and European arena tour to date, set for November 2026. The run will see them perform in major cities across the UK, culminating in two nights at Alexandra Palace. Support across the tour will come from Holding Absence and The Callous Daoboys.

Continuing their commitment to supporting grassroots music, the band will once again donate £1 from every UK arena ticket sold to the Music Venue Trust, reinforcing their longstanding advocacy for independent venues.

With Lose Your Self, Enter Shikari have delivered one of their most uncompromising and immersive releases to date—one that challenges listeners while still offering a sense of optimism in the face of chaos. The arrival of Find Out The Hard Way further cements the album’s impact, as the band continue to evolve both sonically and conceptually.
