Enter Shikari have unveiled details of their fifth studio album ‘The Spark’.

The St Albans rockers will unleash the follow-up to 2015’s ‘The Mindsweep’ on Friday 22nd September 2017 via Play It Again Sam/Ambush Reality.

Coinciding with the album announcement, the band have unleashed the lead single ‘Live Outside’, which comes with bizarre virtual reality themed video.

Cast your corneas on it here:

“The Spark is a new connection, a new beginning. It can be short and insignificant, but it can create something so significant,” says singer Rou Reynolds.

“The spark is that light at the end of the tunnel – when everything seems to be falling apart, but you’re able to see some sort of path out of the dark.”

The album does not feature 2016 songs ‘Redshift’ and ‘Hoodwinker’, plus their Big Narstie collaboration ‘Supercharge’, which are all standalone singles.

Available to pre-order now right here across a variety of formats and packages, ‘The Spark’ track-list is as follows:

1) The Spark

2) The Sights

3) Live Outside

4) Take My Country Back

5) Airfield

6) Rabble Rouser

7) Shinrin-yoku

8) Undercover Agents

9) The Revolt Of The Atoms

10) An Ode To Lost Jigsaw Pieces (in two movements)
