The Enemy Announce October UK Tour Dates & Tickets
Monday, 11 June 2012
Written by Elliott Batte
Coventry-based alternative rockers The Enemy have announced a full, October-time tour of the UK today – check the dates and details below.
The trio, consisting of frontman Tom Clarke, bassist Andy Hopkins and drummer Liam Watts, will embark on the 15-date tour on September 28th at Weston-super-Mare’s Grand Pier, before travelling to a number of venues across the country – including Manchester’s O2 Apollo, UEA in Norwich, 53 Degrees in Preston, and Oxford’s O2 Academy.
The tour comes after the release of their latest album ‘Streets in the Sky’, which came out on May 21st. ‘Streets in the Sky’ is the The Enemy's third album and according to the band, their best yet. Recorded in London and LA with Joby J. Ford from seminal US punk band The Bronx, the 12-track album has the signature Enemy anthemic guitar sound - yet it is much heavier than the last two albums.
It’s packed with huge songs - from the catchy and forceful free download single ‘Gimme the Sign’ to the instantly catchy anthemic song ‘Bigger Cages (Longer Chains)’, to the melodic and punchy track ‘This Is Real’, and has catapulted them to even more fame and success - it even saw them earn a spot performing at the FA Cup Final back in May, where they ended up playing from the roof of the stadium.
