===Band information===


Eye of the Enemy formed in Melbourne in 2006 and quickly developed a reputation for strong periformances and well executed melodic groove metal. After a demo in 2006, an EP emerged in early 2008 that won the attention of Just Say Rock and the next year the band was added to a string of tours including those by '''Cradle of Filth''', '''Amon Amarth''' and '''Malevolent Creation'''. The band appeared at [[Screamfest]] at the end of the year before releasing their debut album mid-2010, supported by a national tour. They toured with '''Amon Amarth''' again the following year and also opened for '''Despised Icon'''. During 2013 they appeared at the [[Sonic Forge Festival]] for the third successive time. A new album was released in 2014 followed by a tour with '''Children of Bodom'''. Late in the year ex-[[Schimachy]] vocalist and stand-up comedian Mitch Alexander replaced Julian Detar. After returning from an Asian tour with '''Fleshgod Apocalypse''' in 2015, [[Orpheus Omega]]'s Chris Themelco replaced Justin McDonald. Anthony Mavrikis is now with [[Envenomed]] and Sean Blanchard with [[Dead City Ruins]].
