Enemy Us is the loving tribute to underrated Californian punk band Enemy You by two rising Canadian upstarts, Talk Show Host and Cluttered. Split records have been a staple of the punk scene forever but this one arrives with a little twist, the bands have swapped singers. At a time when pop-punk is clawing its way back into the mainstream, Enemy Us reminds us of its roots: a bunch of friends, a few chords, and a catchy chorus.

Cluttered‘s singer, songwriter and guitarist Matty Grace (She/They), explains: “Enemy You were a very important band to many and sometimes rad bands end up under-appreciated. This could be the case here. David Jones managed to capture heartbreak and feelings of isolation all within the confines of a 2 or 3 minute punk song and did it with wit. This split is a loving tribute to a band that although has slipped under the radar for many, still resonates strongly for us”.
