Following only one paradigm, freedom, Selim Lemouchi has, after being debriefed from his 6 year tenure as leader of The Devil’s Blood, started by returning to the oldest and most spiritual form of making music; to allow all emotions, all inspiration and all style-figures that drive him, to speak without censor. Be it the torture of love or the bliss of hate, all demons and all angels are allowed to speak.
From rock based music to completely over the top noise, black metal, psychedelic rock to acoustic, more singer/songwriter oriented material.
From the intensely loud and abrasive to the thoughtful and fragile.
It is up to the moment and the fickle nature of inspiration to decide in what direction Selim will be pushed.
The Enemies:
With such an unorthodox approach to content and form it was clear from the start that The Enemies could not be a band in the traditional sense. It shall always be the goal to create a different reality with each performance and therefore Selim will strive to bring different artists to the stage constantly. Not only in order to get the right man/woman for the job whenever possible but also to add to the uncertainty-factor. Improvisation and creative re-arrangement will be the only constant.
