Enemy of the Music Business is the ninth album by the British band Napalm Death, released in 2000. This album, along with Words from the Exit Wound, are the only Napalm Death studio albums that were released only on CD until 2013. London-based Secret Records has re-issued the album on CD (with covers EP Leaders Not Followers included as bonus tracks) and 180g LP. This is the very last release that has Jesse Pintado actually performing.

Notes

Tracks number 7 and 13 are misspelled as "Cant Play Wont Pay" and "(The Public Get) What The Public Doesn't Want" in the back of the album. "Taste The Poison" is credited as "Take The Poison" in the booklet.

"Fracture in the Equation" lasts 3:46. At the end of the song, there is a long silence block from 3:46 to 9:54 and, after that, a secret soundbite comes fading in of a fan introducing himself, just like in the Leaders Not Followers EP and Order of the Leech.
