Enter Shikari played a politically-charged set on Glastonbury's Other Stage this afternoon (June 28), encouraging the massive audience to make a stand against war."Lets hear it Glastonbury, I wanna see every pair of hands in the air!" frontman Roughton Reynolds instructed the audience, before playing opening song 'Solidarity'.Wearing shorts and a T-shirt, the frontman was in an energetic mood for the entirety of the band's set, running, jumping and climbing around the stage.'Anything Can Happen In The Next Half Hour' saw bassist Chris Batten tell the crowd to create a wall of death - where fans part and then mosh and run towards each other.
Within this text, I extracted it from Kerrang, this is a rock/indie magazine therefore similar to NME which is what I am basing my magazine on. I think this article is just as serious as the Bloc Party article but it's a whole different story. It's not the band being broken up as we heard in Bloc Party's, it's about how Enter Shikari became political at a huge gig (Glastonbury) to help express their political emotions. The tone of the article is quite serious, and tells the reader quite a lot about what the performer was wearing, and what song they expressed their political views before and after the track. The grammatical feature within this is used well just like Bloc Party, they highlight the name of the band and performers. Kerrang do it slightly diffrerently and underline them. Still it is effective.
