The Enemy. Are they better than The Jam???

The Enemy. Are they better than The Jam???

and is The Enemy's chart entry gona be creditied to two different record labels or just Warner Brothers???

This lot have passed me by but, no they are not better than The Jam.

You have got to be kidding me. The Enemy aren't good enough to be the Jam's roadies, let alone the band themselves.

Agreed. The Jam is much better.

LMAO! They're one of the most pretentious (sp?) bands out there right now and are basically trying to sustain a career by having their cocks in Kasabian and Oasis' arses In their dreams they're better than the Jam.

Saying that Had Enough was alright but that's about it from them.

Away from here and Had enough were good but that new ones rubbish.

Agreed, The Jam were the best.

WHAT!!!!????

Now im really annoyed, not only is Robyn being labelled as 'euro-cheese', but now my favourite new band of 2007 are being 'attacked'!!!!

They're not pretentious, ive seen the C4 documentary, read articles, they're not claiming to be the 'next big thing', the record itself is better than anything ive heard from Kasabian or Oasis, this band cannot be compared to the Jam so soon after breaking into the charts, but they have had a massive impact on the band's sound....they are making a career for themselves as artists who make great tracks that stick in the mind unlike the boring tripe from oasis that lingers for all of 30 seconds.

The Jam were an awesome band, but The Enemy are one of the freshest bands to come out of the UK in long time, imo. Yes they write about what bothers them and making statements but if the Arctic's or Oasis do that then they're wonderful and adored, this lot do it and people dislike it...you cant win....RANT OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Personally, they remind me more of the Specials (minus the Ska influence) with their attitude. Probably as I found out they both came from Coventry!

Their album is very good (8/10) IMHO.

The problem I have with them is that they go on about 'oh we've had enough of working all the time' etc. when how they hell do they know when they're all about 18?
