Enola Gay

As we lost loved ones who died alone during the pandemic, these inept meat martinets continued and will continue to get away with everything. When their designated spare-dick spearheads are such embarrassments that their actions are brushed off as typical occurrences; you can’t embarrass them more than they embarrass themselves. We watch governmental slapstick playouts daily and still end up the punchline.

This is for the recycled hypocrites elected every round who make it mockingly abundant that we are not their priority. We are their poverty porn. Twisting the knife in us, they spend the millions they haven’t lost yet on monument refurbishment in the midst of an energy crisis. People have suffered this cost of living crisis for years. Only now is it newsworthy with people in the upper echelon also beginning to feel it. Ironically, making the dissociation gap between real people and the likes of Parliament greater than ever.

"They are every bit as ferocious and uncompromising live as you might guess from their records!” Steve Lamacq, BBC 6 Music

Belfast-based noise punks Enola Gay announce ‘Casement’ EP, set for release September 1st via Modern Sky (Crawlers, Malady), and share venomous new track ‘Leeches’, out today (May 25th).

Widely praised by the likes of NME, Rolling Stone, DIY, So Young and Dork, as well as revered musicians Iggy Pop and Jehnny Beth (as well as landing on the BBC 6 Music playlist), the group are back to follow up their acclaimed debut EP ‘Gransha’, with a full UK tour lined up next month to coincide with their appearance at the legendary Download Festival (in addition to Chicago's Riot Fest).

Politically charged once more yet on a global scale, Enola stick their heads above the parapets of the modern times nightmare; taking shots at those profiting off of our degrading position in society. Demanding answers as to why indisposed terminology such as ‘cost of living’ has been normalised whilst millions were wasted on fraud, errors and monument refurbishment.

Detailing their newest release, the follow-up to EP lead single ‘PTS.DUP’, the band explained: “As we lost loved ones who died alone during the pandemic, these inept meat martinets continued and will continue to get away with everything. When their designated spare-dick spearheads are such embarrassments that their actions are brushed off as typical occurrences; you can’t embarrass them more than they embarrass themselves.
