In a statement that the band have released they've said that they're parting ways due to the radio, media and health issues. You can read the full statement below.
"It's with a heavy heart that I write this one. Ten years ago in 2006
my two best friends and I stepped into a rehearsal room and The Enemy
was born. Over a decade we created four albums and toured them
successfully around the world. For a number of reasons the dates we are
announcing in 2016 will be the last time we take to the stage as The
Enemy, at least for the foreseeable future.
A lot happens in ten years. Radio changes, there is without doubt
less room for bands on the airwaves these days and whereas once acts
used to be able to get their big break on a sixth record, in this
climate radio and the media is bored of them by their third, save a very
select few. Our last record was to my mind the most complete and indeed
the best we made, but radio and the media couldn't find a place for it
despite unwaveringly strong ticket sales from a passionately devoted
audience. Sadly funding and releasing records just isn't possible
without support and exposure from radio. This frustrates and saddens me
in equal measure. While this is the main reason it has to be said it's
not the only one. Health issues for myself and one of us becoming a
proud father are amongst some of the others.
10 years, 4 albums, well over 1,000,000 record sales and uncountable
sell out tours is not too shabby for an alternative indie band, but
these numbers aren't what makes me proud personally, the fans are. They
drove this band, they provided the fire for this decade long journey. I
have always loved them and I always will. They've kept me going at times
when I thought nothing else might. To all Enemy fans, I adore you.
As we stand on stage for the last few times on this tour, I'll be
cherishing the last fleeting moments of a decade that has shaped who we
all are, bands and fans alike. We all know what we'll be sharing. Come,
bring your hearts, bring your lungs and leave with our songs, take them
onto the streets and into your lives and keep them alive for us forever.
Six dates will be released soon, we'll see you at the front.
