THE ENEMY & THE SUBWAYS cover each others anthems in preparation for the 'INDIE TIL I DIE' Oct UK Tour! Half & Half Charity Scarf released Oct 10th in aid of World Homeless/World Mental Health Day!
As the upcoming ‘Indie Til I Die’ tour promises to celebrate the rousing energy and youthful spirit of the early 2000s indie scene, headliners The Enemy and special guests The Subways now announce details of a special initiative to celebrate the occasion.
October 10th will see the two bands release covers of each other’s songs via Alcopop! Records, with The Enemy tackling The Subways’ classic single ‘Rock & Roll Queen’ (SNEAK A PEAK HERE) while The Subways have put their twist on ‘We’ll Live And Die In These Towns’, the title track from The Enemy’s #1 debut album. In addition, the two bands have collaborated to produce a special half-and-half scarf, limited quantities of which are now available HERE with more becoming available on the tour! What’s more, for every scarf sold, another scarf will be donated to Shelter to distribute to those who need them this winter.
It’s a fun concept, but one with a positive purpose too. October 10th is both World Homeless Day and World Mental Health Day, so all profits from the project will be donated to Shelter and Mind. Shelter exist to defend the right to a safe home, and each year provide information, support and advice to millions of people facing homelessness and experiencing unfit and unsafe housing. And Mind are the mental health charity who aim to make sure no one has to face a mental health problem alone by standing up to injustices and providing help via information, advice and local services.

The Subways’ Billy Lunn says, “Growing up with mental health issues and moving from one council house to the next, it nonetheless took me many years to realise just how entwined and circular the two are. The uncertainty I experienced in my living situation took its toll on my already troubled mind during its most formative years - and, had my family not been provided with the secure housing that we needed, I dread to think what might have become of my mental health situation.
