Enter Shikari set off with Jason Aalon Butler (without those musicians who are currently Fever 333 behind the former letlive.-frontman positioned) on tour. To get you in the mood for this, there is the joint single Losing My Grip.
The jittery beat tumbles in neon colors and vocal alienation into a crossover clusterfuck made up of a fat off-the-shelf metal riff and hyperactive synths, as if brightly colored hip hop zeitgeist were all you might think of Rage Against the Machine and Atari Teenage Riot Misunderstanding can push through a filter that puts a few catchy hook ideas over coherent songwriting, which leaves the co-op song going nowhere and ultimately just pulls the plug.
Precisely because the two parties harmonize so well, Rou Reynolds and Butler scream, rap and sing their way through the templates together Losing My Grip without any suspense, a purely gimmicky, modular momentum – and should therefore appeal to both fans of Enter Shikarias well as those by Jason Aalon Butler and Fever 333 fell completely. A real fan pleaser.
The main act states: “We’ve known Fever 333 lead singer Jason for years now and have toured much of the world together. I think we always thought that it’d be great to collaborate on something when the right opportunity surfaced. This track certainly felt right. It required a thoughtful intensity, which Jason provides effortlessly in whatever he sets his mind to. We can’t wait to take Fever 333 out on our UK and Europe tour, it’s been too long since we shared a stage together. Losing My Grip oscillates between two of our favourite and foundational genre influences; Drum and Bass and hardcore punk. Lyrically, it’s regarding the immense power that our species now wields, and the pressure and weight that that adds to our lives. We’re the only species capable of destroying itself (and all others) completely and, increasingly, it appears as though we’re only too willing. Losing My Grip is regarding the fight to stay sane whilst living in a deeply and dangerously flawed system.”
And Jason Butler adds: “I’ve always been a fan of Enter Shikari. Yes, them as a band, but moreover, them as people. Yes, what they do, but even more so how they do it. They are an entity in their own lane and I’m honoured to have had an opportunity to swerve in it for a second and very excited to be rockin‘ with them on this upcoming tour. WE ARE GODS.„
