The Enemy will release their fourth studio album in October.

More than three years on from ‘Streets In The Sky‘, frontman Tom Clarke is promising a bold new direction for the band when ‘It’s Automatic‘ arrives on October 9th.

“We’ve been working on it for a long time,” he said. “It’s a fucking great record. It was difficult to make but not in a bad way. To people who are still living in 2007 it’ll be a shock but to us it’s a natural progression.”

“I sat Andy down and said, ‘Mate, I don’t wanna make another Enemy record. I’m bored. We’ve nailed what we do, I wanna go and do solo stuff and make music like the music I listen to.’ And he said, ‘So do I.’ So we decided to take a leap of faith together.”

The album will be taken around the UK from mid-November, starting at Fibbers in York.
