VIDEO: The Enemy Coventry S7ven Live Gig
Here are all 14 videos from The Enemy gig at S7ven nightclub in Coventry, recorded on Thursday 16th February 2012.
The Enemy returned to Coventry with a bang - a gig fans would never forget! Tom Clarke, Andy Hopkins, Liam Watts and Tom Boddy did what The Enemy do best ..... they played great tunes that fans love.
S7ven nightclub was crammed full and the atmosphere was electric as The Enemy took to the stage. There were no barriers, no heavy handed security - this was a date with The Enemy and their fans. No-one left disappointed because The Enemy know how to deliver on what they do best.
Fans from around the world tuned in for the live stream of the event, hosted on the official website www.theenemy.com and other websites. The following videos were recorded by robmacca - the aim was to try and capture the excitement within the crowds. Even when everyone is jumping up and down, singing along and enjoying every moment, the videos show just how lively The Enemy performances are. While the sound/picture quality of the videos do not do The Enemy justice, hopefully you will get a flavour of what the upcoming tour and festivals will be like.

PRESS: Your Chance To Question The Enemy
MUSIC fans could get the chance to question Coventry band The Enemy this month.
The indie three-piece are calling on people to send questions about their upcoming third album which should be released next year.
The best questions will then be selected and a video of someone putting them to the band will be posted on their website.
Frontman Tom Clarke said: “We would rather hear what you wanted from us rather than what we thought you wanted.”
A demo of their third album – called This Is Real – has been made available to download on the band’s page on social networking website Facebook.
It comes after the city’s best-known group from recent years performed in Ayia Napa last month alongside Brit Pop act The Charlatans and electro music duo Chase and Status.
Email questions to enemyinterrogation@greenhousegroup.co.uk and visit http://www.theenemy.com/ to see the winning questions put to the band.

The Enemy Reward Fans With Free Download
The Enemy are giving fans a free copy of 'This Is Real', the brand new demo track that should be on the new album early next year.
This is what Tom, Liam and Andy wrote to fans of The Enemy:
Just to prove we are writing and recording the new album we are giving all you lot on the mailing list / Facebook a demo of a new song from the third album. The song is called 'This Is Real', and I'll spare you long winded explanations, but I guess the lyrics are self explanatory and reflective of where we are all at right now.
To get the new track, head over to our Facebook page and give us a "like" to unlock it. Our Facebook, which is now being updated and looked after properly, will be a real meeting place for us and you lot.
We're now dipping our toes in the murky waters of social media for the first time properly. Our official Twitter will be here and all three of us, with help from the road crew, will be updating when and where we feel it. I will, however, not be updating you on what I'm having for breakfast or what pants Liam is wearing...because that stuff winds me up.
We also head to Ayia Napa on Wednesday to play a set made up of the last two albums, and road testing a few new uns too. The Charlatans and Chase & Status are playing the same festival as us, so definitely worth checking out if you're planning on heading over. There's more info over at: http://www.napalivefestival.com/.
Looks like the album will come out early next year (we are thinking Feb) and we can't wait to get back out properly on the road. We have around 18 new tracks at the min, working titles include, 'Melody', 'This Is Real', 'Its Automatic', 'All Or Nothing', 'Come Into My World', etc, etc…
We are still writing, and in fact are recording four more demos next week and enjoying being three lads in a small room banging out tunes again. I hope you enjoy 'This is Real' as much as we have thinking about banging it live and watching the room go off!
As much as I have loved watching Kasabian, Beady Eye and The Antics smash it live over the last few months, time off is for pussy's!!! So see ya soon unless you're in Ayia Napa, in which case see you over the next few days.
Tom Clarke, Andy Hopkins, Liam Watts
…BTW people on Facebook keep asking our favorite venues to play in the UK ever, so here they are in no particular order: The Astoria London (gone to make way for a fucking train station; we did seven nights in a row there a few years back... a record I think). Glasgow Barrowlands (The people!!!!). Leamington Assembly Rooms (A Solid Silver wall in club in Leamington Spa????). Dundee Caird Hall (Insane and brilliant). Manchester Apollo (If you don't know you should)…and Coventry anywhere!

The Enemy Are Back - But Will Anyone Notice?
Four years ago in July, The Enemy were number one with their debut album 'We'll Live And Die in These Towns' and the new darlings of the musical press. Yet we all know how fickle the media can be when it comes to bands and artists. These days The Enemy struggle to even get a mention in the NME, but to be fair - the lads had been on a well earned break after touring almost constantly since the start of 2007.
The recent secret gig in Leamington Spa has thus far remained a secret from the wider world, perhaps indicating the uphill battle facing The Enemy prior to the release of their third album. Indie bands have but vanished into the haze as R&B dominate the UK charts, making a return to the music scene even more harder for The Enemy. The worst possible scenario for The Enemy would be to release a brilliant album that goes almost unnoticed by the masses.
Fans know that Tom Clarke, Andy Hopkins and Liam Watts can put on a fast paced live performance - those who were lucky enough to be at the Adidas secret gig also know the new album sounds very promising. The Enemy have grown up and moved on from 'Music For The People', the new tunes are a welcome return to form. They actually sound like The Enemy again, instead of a rather over inflated egotistical rock band! Gone are the long guitar rifts and the need to sound like other bands, thankfully we have catchy, uptempo tunes that will have you tapping your feet within seconds.
Tom Clarke has always written songs ahead of his age, as a teenager he was writing gritty lyrics about life in Coventry and the trappings of working life - not your average teenager! Now in his early twenties, Tom seems to have found a happy medium lyrically. The new tunes will have lads and lasses singing out loud to 'Come Into My World' and 'This Is Real', while 'Like A Dancer' not only has a beat that totally belongs to The Enemy - the lyrics tell a simple story. No wonder 'there's a twinkle in her little eye' , The Enemy have the potential for some chart success.
Much will depend on how the record label promote The Enemy's new album, fans will be hoping it is a damn sight better than how they promoted 'Music For The People'. The shift from being close to their fans (album #1) to becoming a corporate product (album #2) was a painful journey, maybe we can arrive at a compromise (album #3) where The Enemy do what they do best and also keep fans up to date, while fans realise the band have moved beyond the borders of Coventry. It would be sad if the third album became one of those great sounding albums that never gets appreciated. The Enemy are back with new songs that (if marketed correctly) could see Tom Clarke, Andy Hopkins and Liam Watts back at the top of the UK charts.
