"There seems to be a need to maintain the belief that 'straights,' grown-ups would be shocked, damaged, altered, if they were around to hear the music. But the blindingly obvious fact is that no one is around to be disturbed. The fiction that 'the enemy' occupies the same space as our noisemaking seems integral to the pleasure people derive from noise, the significance they confer [....] But the whole discourse of noise-as-threat is bankrupt, positively inimical to the remnants of power that still cling to noise. Forget subversion. The point is self-subversion, overthrowing the power structure in your own head. The enemy is the mind's tendency to systematize, sew up experience, place a distance between itself and immediacy [....] The goal is OBLIVION (a.k.a. jouissance, the sublime, the ineffable)" - Simon Reynolds, Blissed Out (1990)
THE ENEMY is done. Members of THE ENEMY can be heard and seen as current contributors to the following projects: Covington, Stalemate, People Of Color. If you are from England, and you think we are the English The Enemy, you are mistaken. We are not from England, as it clearly states next to our profile picture. We are American. If you happen to communicate with the English The Enemy, please ask them to stop playing music. Because of their overwhelming success making the awful racket that they do, we were moved to end our tenure as THE ENEMY. That is, however, after we were instrumental in the postponement and eventual cancellation of their first U.S. tour. If they mention anything about buying our MySpace URL from us, you can tell them they had their chance. Thanks to everyone who supported us, partied with us, and befriended us over the three years we did this.
THE ENEMY? With raucous live performances and a penchant for improvisation, The Enemy is an ass-kicking, face-melting rock outfit from Rhode Island that wants nothing more than to make you move... and move you. The Enemy is comprised of five wily young men who write, perform, record, produce, duplicate and distribute their own music.

Do you think you could do me a favor? My friend Brian has entered a competition on MySpace for his short film. Its about a kid whose parents are in the porn industry. Its hilarious. It would mean a ton to mean if you checked out the movie and gave it a thumbs up booyah in the box below the video.
