Produced by The Earlies and Tom Knott and recorded in both the middle of America and the North of England (Texas, Manchester and Burnley respectively) 'The Enemy Chorus' builds on the approach of their acclaimed debut 'These Were The Earlies' with a rich and expansive sound, textured with an original progressive edge. The record received deserved praise being lauded as "intergalactic" and "beguiling" and described as "a work of baroque detail".
The album went on to receive a 10/10 rating in the ever so selective and discerning NME quite simply because there are not many bands that evade categories quite like The Earlies. Sometimes they float, sometimes they soar... their purpose always to progress forward. Their second album, 'The Enemy Chorus' does just that but with a little more gusto and it represents a chance for fans to see the next step in the progression that an already much-loved band has made. No matter what time zone they find themselves in it appears The Earlies cannot put a foot wrong.

"Eight Miles High era Byrds trade super-heavy bong hits with a melodica-toting Augustus Pablo. God Bless you Earlies you are the bomb!" NME
Working from manipulated performances by a collective of English and American musicians 'These Were The Earlies' combines layered vocals with imaginary and more traditional instruments to produce a unique pop sound where sonic exploration can still take place.
"The Devil’s Country sounds like nothing else around…there really doesn’t seem any point in trying to draw comparisons, because they are quite simply a law unto themselves. And for that you’ve just gotta love ‘em" DJ
