The Enemy are set to headline this year's improbably-titled O2 Presents NME Rock N Roll Riot Tour this autumn.

The Coventry-based rockers, who once vowed never to write a song about a castle, will join Scouse pop-punkers The Wombats and grindie stalwart Lethal Bizzle for the tour, which has previously witnessed performances from the likes of the Kaiser Chiefs and Razorlight.

Where to begin, where to begin...

commoners

cos the NME, sorry, the enemy, are like, WELL working class right, and they hate people that live in castles and stuff cos they like SPREAK 4 DA MASSES and stuff cos they dont want to be no slaves to the wage and the name badges.

I hate The Enemy so much that I refuse to listen

to anything other than Castlecore bands now.

The Absentee Landlords, Jonny Hedgefund and The Profit Margins, Trustafarian, MC Motte and DJ Bailey, My Garden is Called Kent, Fox Destroyer.....stuff like that.
