Czars of Swamp

Enemy Airship formed in the summer of 2011 from the bones and vital organs of Nonreturner, mainstay and longtime linchpin of the Columbia MO music scene. The Slow Suggestive, the band’s recently-wrapped debut EP, is the sound of a band in swift ascent. The strummy sounds of C86 and Creation abound, and fans of the band’s former incarnation will note the carryovers: piquant guitar melodies; sharp, protean percussion; alternately plangent and empyreal vocals; all awash in synth and reverb.
