Enter Shikari will embark on a tour across North American in April. The UK-based electro-punk-rockers will be bringing to other bands: Letlive and At the Skylines, along for the six-week trek.

“The more eagle-eyed amongst you may have noticed that this tour is made up of a three-band-bill. Believe us, this is deliberate,” said the band in a combined statement. “It has long been the belief in Enter Shikari camp that North American audiences have been trained, like customers at a bad diner, to believe that a large full plate makes up for tasteless food. While nobody here thinks that one tour will reverse the trend, we’re at least going to give it a go. Instead of cramming what they have to say into 25 minute sets with ten minutes on either side to get their gear on and offstage, each band will be given time to spread their wings, safe in the knowledge that all their onstage ducks are in line.”

The “A Flash Flood Of Colour North American Tour 2012” is in promotion of the band’s latest album, A Flash Flood Of Colour, which was released on January 17 via Hopeless Records. And it will mark the first time they have played stateside since November 2010. Peep the dates below.
