The Enemy: ‘Second Album Was A Pleasure To Make’
Tom Clarke and co. reveal the ‘difficult second album’ was anything but. You can hear the new single ‘No Time For Tears’ right here.
Tom Clarke spoke to Steve Harris last night about making the band’s second album, ‘Music For The People’. Far from being a difficult process, the singer revealed it was an easier album to make than their debut.
“It was a lot easier than the first one. People refer to the second as a ‘difficult’ album, because for a lot of bands it’s make-or-break and they rush it. We’ve given it the proper time to mature... It’s been a pleasure to make, to be honest with you”.
With lead-off single ‘No Time For Tears’ sounding suitably huge, the album follows suit with a raft of classic-sounding rock and gigantic ballads.
“We’re all massively proud of it. We’ve obviously taken a bit longer than a lot of bands lately have taken to make records. And I think that’s right. If you look back at classic records and classic bands it’s always taken this amount of time to make a record”.
