Your Favorite Enemies is back in studio… Time for Music!

Your Favorite Enemies is back in studio… Time for Music!

In January 2008, Your Favorite Enemies went back into the studio, after a short break for the Holidays! They were working on the upcoming album, of course, exploring different sounds, and perspectives. This is one thing that hasn’t changed through the years; they’ve always wanted their music to sound like them. It is THEIR very own music, and you can feel who they are through their music. They have more guts now delivering it, I guess, but this desire has never changed.

When they got back in studio, they had the upcoming album in mind, of course… But there was one more thing that was lingering in the back of their minds… Making sure that the song “Open Your Eyes” was ready for March 1st, as this was a very special week-end… People from all over the world would be coming to Montreal to assist the filming of the ”Open Your Eyes” video clip, and spend the whole week-end with Your Favorite Enemies… Continue Reading

Japanese God

Japanese God

I guess you can consider this video the following of what happened in the previous post for Ceremony & Jubilation! lol!

Yuki wanted to teach Sef a certain lesson, after everything he had him go through. The legend of Yamata No Orochi, lost in the forest, wearing only underwear, in winter, wasn’t enough… Yuki needed to push the legend a bit further, just like Sef did with the “magic snow” and the “maple toffee”. So a little touch of “Japanese magic” did the trick!!!

Sadly for Yuki, he learned the hard way that Sef doesn’t accept humiliation that easily. And that he still believes in Yamata No Orochi, as well as he still thinks he’s a Japanese God. He’s just a little more quiet about it…

2008, Jeff traveled to France, just like he did in 2012, to go to the Midem Festival in Cannes, France. A beautiful place, a kind of paradise, to say the least.

Jeff, well known for being the one dealing most of the business aspects that are related to the band, went there to have different meetings. A crazy week, indeed, he came back and we could hardly recognize him. Walking all the time, without eating because of the lack of time, waking up early in the morning in order to get ready for the meetings, and coming back at impossible hours at night after the different meetings, let’s say Jeff worked as if he had been 2 or even 3 different people. He was everywhere, all the time. Continue Reading

What if…

What if…

We all come across a point in our lives where we want to change things, where we hadn’t done certain things and done some others, that we hadn’t taken risks, taken some other paths. There are always things we would like to change. But there are also times where we look at where we stand in the very moment, and wouldn’t change a thing. Not because it is perfect, as there is no such thing as perfection. But because we feel that this place where we stand is the very place where we should be. And with the new year that has just started, it seems to be a perfect time to do this, to start anew if we want to, or to keep walking the same path with even more passion…

This questioning, this doubt, the band members all had it too, a few years ago…

What if they weren’t part of Your Favorite Enemies? Who would they be? What would their lives be like??? But no matter what kind of wrong turns they did, no matter what choices they made, I guess they’re in the right direction!
