Your Favorite Enemies’ First EP
Interview Part 3
5 years, 6 people, 1 same spirit

Final part of the interview Your Favorite Enemies gave about their very first EP, five years ago… A time that sometimes felt forgotten for each and every one of us, as it seems so far away sometimes…

I was really glad to see your reactions last week, saying that Your Favorite Enemies’ spirit hasn’t changed. In the core, I think it is still the same as well. It might have changed – it must have changed – over the years, knowing that we go through different things, get a different understanding on things… Things change, evolve, but to see that Your Favorite Enemies are still true to themselves is something that I am very proud of, and something that never ceases to amaze me, as this is so rare nowadays… You sell out to be known, then drift from a fad to another in order to keep a “hype” that is merely there, really, and that is totally artificial. From the very start, Your Favorite Enemies knew what they wanted to do… BE with the people. And this is what they did. Said “fuck off” to the common “industry” logic at the time, and still today…

Also controversial, sometimes misunderstood by some people, the artwork used for the cover of the EP also raised a lot of questions. Alex explains it, while images shown are bringing you behind the scenes, right where the photo shoot was done.

“Your Favorite Enemies… a band for some, a call-up for others… an uplifting family and an upper room for some… human rights activists and independent free thinkers for many… whatever they might incarnate, represent or be for everyone of us, YFE’s band members will undoubtedly remain brothers, sisters, loved ones and real friends…”
