Late of the Pier: 'The Enemy Are Sh*t'

Castle Donington’s finest, Late of the Pier, have hit out at outspoken Coventry upstarts The Enemy, a band far more used to dishing out the odd tongue lashing themselves.

Lured by Gigwise into naming their least favourite band on the scene, Andrew Faley from the four piece was quick to blurt: “It’s got to be The Enemy- they’re just shit.” Will these kids ever learn?

Elsewhere in the interview, Faley said that Late of the Pier categorically aren’t influenced by Klaxons or any other such glowstick wielding outfit clogging the scene, saying: “We were doing what we’re doing before Klaxons even came out. We’re electronic odd-sock pop-rock”

Quizzed as to what their debut album will sound like, Faley continued: “We’ll incorporate all our many different styles and genres. It’ll have a lot of the songs we play at gigs but new songs as well. I actually had a dream that the Avalanches saw us and said they really liked how our album sounded like something they did”
