Фірмова вінілова платівка (VINYL)British rock band Enter Shikari released their fifth studio album The Spark on 22 September 2017, via Ambush Reality and PIAS Recordings.The following year, on 26 November 2018, they released a book titled The Spark – Lyrics & Exegesis of Rou Reynolds, which featured all lyrics from The Spark, as well as essays on the album's tracks provided by frontman Rou Reynolds.In December 2019, following extensive touring in support of their previous record, The Spark, lead singer Rou Reynolds expressed his desire in an interview with Kerrang! to create the "most definitive Shikari record to date", with Reynolds further elaborating that "[this is] the one that a fan would pass to their mate like, 'You don't know Shikari? This is where you start.'"Following the album's announcement, Reynolds spoke once again to Kerrang! about the themes and sounds on the album, saying, "Possibility is the central theme of the album, lyrically, but it also is musically, too. We've pushed further and asked ourselves, 'Where can we go? Let's fucking go there!' One track is a symphonic orchestral piece, but then there are other tracks that wouldn't sound out of place on our first album, Take to the Skies. I think one thing about this album that's slightly different is that we set out to make something that encapsulates everything that Shikari have done. This album is more broad, and there's more confidence in the songwriting."Recording for the album took place throughout 2019 and early 2020, with the band documenting the process via a WhatsApp number that fans could follow to receive studio updates directly. Nothing Is True was produced by Reynolds; "it gave us more attention to detail. There are more hours that have been put into this album than any other – a lot more sweat, toil, and crippling indecision!"When asked about the meaning of the title, Reynolds stated "The 'Nothing Is True' part is a statement of what it feels like to be alive in 2020, it's hard to grasp the truth. There's so much tribalism, bias and ulterior motives everywhere, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to know where to place your trust. And I love the 'Everything Is Possible' part, because the usual phrase is 'Anything Is Possible'. And that's that empowering, motivational, 'You can do anything; anything is possible!' thing. But 'Everything Is Possible' makes it far more sinister. 'Anything' implies choice, but 'Everything' is more daunting, because it takes the focus away from your choice. That, then, is a much better reflection of where we're at, because possibility, traditionally, is a positive thing. But now possibility has become terrifying. The word 'possibility' is shifting to become much more of a layered, deep and scary concept. The title also mirrored the music, and how we keep pushing ourselves."Although the songs share many lyrical themes in tune with a 2014 book with the identical title, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible, the band has not confirmed this is intentional. 1 The Great Unknown 3:252 Crossing The Rubicon 3:183 { The Dreamer's Hotel } 2:534 Waltzing Off The Face Of The Earth (I.
