About Me


Album now available worlwide i.e hmv, virgin etc


Wickedly heavy debut from midlands metal heads.

Alexander Milas "kerrang magazine"


'...they're ferocious and their storming debut is a powderkeg of explosive riffs and headcaving blastbeats. from the rythm infectiousness of 'Genetic hatred' to the unmitigated fury of 'Last children of history' enemo j simply ooze the kind of inventiveness and vitality that promises this heavy debut won't be there last'

7.5 "terrorizer magazine"


'you cant argue with the kind of riff that opens up this impeccably-produced album....well you can if you want a black eye for your troubles.Yes its that nasty and detuned and keeps coming at you like a tiger shark on a feeding frenzy. The vocals are just as brutal, and the rythm section is locked and loaded.....enemo j seem like an interesting proposition'

"zero tolerance"


'the bludgeoning rythem section and ferocious vocal onslaught combine to create this creditable edgy metal affair'

8/10 "metal hammer"


' a promising debut which raises aggresive music to a new plain for fans of sepultura and exceedingly heavy heavy metal sound mesmerising stuff'
Enemo j pronounced eeneemo - jay the name came from an adjusted title of a patriotic group. The band started in around the year two thousand, Which featured the line up of Craig on vocals and decks, Leroy on vocals, Bucky on bass, Dennis on drums and Bob on guitar, The current line up has changed to Craig on vocals, Dennis on drums backing vocals and samples, Welly on bass and Scott on guitar.
