As stated on their online blog via The Enemy website:
“There’s been a lot of words spoken in the last few months. Lot’s of questions about the new album, when can you hear it, and when you can see it live. The response and excitement from everybody has been humungous. Now is a time for less words, more noise. The long awaited third record from The Enemy is here. It is called Streets In The Sky, named after a documentary made in Sheffield. The first chance for you to hear it, is now.
Zane Lowe has the first play of Gimme The Sign, a face tearing guitar heavy sing along comeback single that sets out our stall. It’s the first track of the album that we recorded with Joby J Ford from The Bronx, punks finest and most exciting. How do you get it?
