Commented MARIONETTE lead guitarist and backing vocalist Aron Parmerud: "Unlike the recording process of 'Spite', we recorded 'Enemies' over a period of months, and we have had plenty of time to try new things in the studio to make the album absolutely insane. Every element that you heard on 'Spite' has been taken to the extreme. At the same time, there is a clear evolution from 'Spite' to 'Enemies'. All of the live experience we have had while touring has made us more skillful as individual musicians and tighter as a band. All this will reflect itself on 'Enemies' when it is in your hands this fall!"

MARIONETTE's debut album, "Spite", was released in Europe on April 28, 2008 via Listenable Records and in North America in September via Koch/Listenable. The CD was recorded with producers Simon Exner and two-time Swedish Grammis award winner Åke Parmerud in Borås, Sweden. "Spite" was mixed and mastered by Christian Silver at Studio Mega (SONIC SYNDICATE, BY NIGHT) in Varberg, Sweden.
