Joined by bass player Ben Lemelin and singer Miss Isabel, The Riddlers signed a production deal with an American company based in Nashville, toured as much in Canada as in the United States and launched 2 independent albums. After a little more than five years, as difficult as the decision was to make considering all the work done to establish The Riddlers on the American folk scene, the members of the group decided to turn the page and call it quit in Spring of 2003.After several months of rest, writing and studio work, the band previously known as The Riddlers came back with guitar player Jeff Beaulieu in the beginning of 2004 under the moniker In This Life, an alternative rock band, and launched the Quiet Day for Sunshine Breathers album.2004 began with force for In This Life. While the members of the group were working on new material, the band has been invited to showcase at the prestigious Canadian Music Week and refused a record deal with an American Indie label. Meanwhile, Alex Foster's relentless campaigns against a well organized white supremacist organization distributing free copies of racist artists in North-American high schools put In This Life in every major Canadian media as anti-racist activists. Not only did this push American authorities to take action against the racist Schoolyard project, but it also gave birth to Rock N Rights, the band pro human rights pennant. Furthermore, an important movie director approached Foster to make a documentary on his life, including his past as a young violent gang leader, his present role as a spokesperson for Amnesty International and his music.2005 became an important year for In This Life's members when they received a call from Bob Luthala, one of the most influential and respected manager (I Mother Earth, Edwin, Mobile) in Canada and began to work on the band's unique sound as they welcomed drummer Charles Allicy and changed their name from In This Life to Your Favorite Enemies in late 2006. Therefore, characterized by their new sound and their tight line up, the band decided to join Cerebral Entertainment in 2007, right after creating the label Hopeful Tragedy Records, releasing their first EP "And If I Was To Die In The Morning… Would I Still Be Sleeping With You", of which they sold 25 thousand hard copies, and headlining their first European tour.Your Favorite Enemies are set to work on their first album, Love is a Promise Whispering Goodbye, with producer Steve Thompson (Korn, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Jet) by the end of 2007… album due out for 2008..."YFE"src="http://www.yourfavoriteenemies.com/myspace/ yfeprinc/bannersyfe/photoband_3.gif"
