The Enemy.

Have just finished listening to their album 'We live and die in these towns' and have to say I was really impressed.

 

A couple of their songs sounded remarkably like 'The Jam'.

 

Anyone seen them/got any thoughts on them...

hate them. poor mans Jam.

 

 

I don't think that's fair. A different era.

 

They were obviously influenced by Weller but I found the album very good and definately a lot better than some of the tripe doing the rounds at the minute.

 

This track in particular stood out....

well you did ask for peoples thoughts...:P

 

i just thought that the last single went beyond being influenced by the Jam to just being a complete rip off.

 

i maybe wouldnt mind them as much if it wasnt for all the hype, i just dont see what all the fuss is about. that and the fact they seem lika a bunch of right bawbags

Fair enough mate.

 

If i'm being honest I wasn't aware of any hype.

The worst of the current NME championed pop bands.

 

Stale, boring, safe lyrics with catchy choruses.

 

No excitement whatsoever

I'm a music snob really. But I like 'Em. Got more of a real feel to them, relate more to the lyrics than say the Arctic Monkeys who were 'famed' for saying how it was in real life. Yea right.

Class band. Class videos.

 

"We Live and Die in These Towns" is uncannily like the Jam.(I hope that makes sense:ninja:)

 

Along with The Wombats they are my favourite band at the moment.
