Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible

Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible is the sixth studio album by English band Enter Shikari, released on 17 April 2020 through SO Recordings.
Background and production
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 " 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!”
