Medea at La Boite
When Medea fell for Jason, she fell hard. Hard enough to sacrifice everything to be with him. She deceived her father, committed murder, left the comforts of her homeland and bore him two sons.

Enter Shikari Mindsweep Tour
As ever with ES you'll find yourself simultaneously inspired by their unique vision and despairing at how RARE such forward-moving revolutionary art is in this day and age. In a musical world where the by-rote and predictable seem to be the only 'risk' anyone's willing to take, and where lyrically rock'n'roll has never been more conservative, 'personal' and staid, Enter Shikari's music hits like a bolt from the blue, a living livid reminder of music's real ancient powers and future possib...
