The Enemy will release their new single ‘Gimme The Sign’ tonight (21st February) as a free download to fans through their Facebook and website after the first play on Zane Lowe’s Radio 1 show at 7.30pm this evening. 

Premiered at their homecoming gig in Coventry last Thursday night, ‘Gimme The Sign’ is a perfect taste of what is to come from the bands new album ‘Streets In The Sky’ released this Spring. Produced by The Bronx’s Joby J. Ford, ‘Gimme The Sign’ is quite simply, a huge anthem.

Much heavier than The Enemy’s earlier sound whilst also leaning towards the anthemic sound of their first album ‘We’ll Live and Die in These Towns’, ‘Gimme The Sign’ couples Tom Clarke’s signature chanting vocals with strong, forceful drums and heavily confident guitars. It is catchy, instant and huge and is a massive live track just made for crowd surfing. And that’s exactly what it created in Coventry on Thursday night.

To date, the band have sold over half a million tickets for their live gigs and along with their own headline dates and festival appearances, they have performed with the likes of Oasis, Kasabian, Manic Street Preachers and Stereophonics. The Enemy performed a homecoming show at S7VEN nightclub in Coventry last week to a packed out, ecstatic crowd who managed to get a ticket to the tiny 350 capacity gig (which sold out in seconds). They have just announced that they will also be performing four UK tour dates this May where they will be premiering further album tracks. Full tour dates are as follows:

May
5th - Leeds, Live at Leeds
23rd - Manchester Academy
24th - London, Shepherds Bush Empire
25th - Glasgow ABC
