The Enemy Announce Spilt

The Enemy announce split after ten year career. 

Coventry band The Enemy are splitting up and the end of their current tour after a ten year career, it has been confirmed. The band announced the news on April 6 via their social media accounts.

The group formed in 2006 and just a year later would go on to secure a chart topping album We'll Live And Die In These Towns. With a name inspired by some graffiti on Coventry's Kasbah nightclub, the album sold over 300,000 copies. They went on to make three more albums which have amounted to over 1,000,000 sales.

In a statement on Coventry nightclub The Empire's Facebook page, frontman Tom Clarke wrote: "Ten years, four albums, well over 1,000,000 record sales and uncountable sell out tours is not too shabby for an alternative indie band."

"The fans kept me going when I thought nothing else might. To all Enemy fans, I adore you."

Clarke wrote a heartfelt letter detailing why the band decided to split.
