ROCKERS The Enemy have revealed they will play their "biggest gig to date" when they visit Coventry as part of their 2012 tour.
The local band shot to fame back in 2007 with their debut album We'll Live and Die in These Towns and have since gone on to become one of the most recognised rock bands within the past ten years.
Tom Clarke, Liam Watts and Andy Hopkins, who were all back in the city on Tuesday to give their seal of approval to a new music venue in the Canal Basin, have kept a fairly low profile after releasing their second album, Music for the People, in 2009.
And Clarke revealed in a tweet that their new album will be launched early next year, which will include a UK tour across UK, which will include them playing in Coventry for the first time in two years.
"There will be a large open air gig in Coventry and it will be the biggest how we'll have put on to date," confirmed Clarke on the social networking site Twitter.
He added: "The album will be similar to the first but with everything we've learned over the last five or six years applies."
The band are planning "Major" gigs in Scotland, Northern Ireland and in the south and are set to appear at the majority of summer festivals next year.
