Enter Shikari Unveil New Video For Latest 'Mindsweep' Single Anaesthetist
Tuesday, 06 January 2015
Written by Laura Johnson
Enter Shikari have released a video for their new single, Anaesthetist, prior to the arrival of their fourth album, 'The Mindsweep'.
The latest track to emerge from the St Albans-based four piece was pegged as Zane Lowe's Hottest Record in the World on his BBC Radio 1 show last night.
Anaesthetist is Rou Reynolds' attack on Tory policy in relation to the NHS. He said:
“We seem to have reached a stage of such capitalistic fervour, that we believe it acceptable to punish people for ill health. By charging for healthcare we act as if illness is nothing but one’s own problem, but what is the purpose and advantage of ‘civilisation' if it is not helping the most vulnerable within society?
"The lottery of birth can offer us a wealth of bad luck when it comes to our health and the safety nets are being pulled in as the desire to boost profit overtakes the desire to help people.”
You can catch the band on the UK leg of their tour in February, while 'The Mindsweep' is out on January 19.
