All donations will go to Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) an independent, international, humanitarian medical organisation which provides emergency medical aid in areas of conflict or disaster, regardless of race, religion, gender or political affiliation. For more details on the charity see link
A link to the EP can be found at link from April 1st 2010.
Enter Shikari have also launched a free Mobile Lions phone app, which you can find at link. The is not restricted to iPhone (so it works across many makes and models) and, as well as giving fans a sneak preview of the above mentioned Rout remix, it also allows fans to post photos, music and video, comment on others postings, and to communicate with one another and with individual band members. The band will use the app to upload photos and musings from live on the road or in the studio, as well as the potential to upload exclusive live tracks, remixes, videos and tour diaries.
While Enter Shikari will not be touring the UK again until 2011 at the earliest, there ARE some UK festivals in the diary for this year, including a headline slot at Newcastle's Evolution Festival, and a return to Reading/Leeds to see if last year's insanity can be topped in 2010!
