After Brainiac's disbandment, guitarist Schmersal teamed up with ex-Skeleton Key members Lee and Calhoon to form Enon.

Following the release of their first album "Believo!" in 2000, Calhoon left the band, and was replaced by Toko Yasuda on vocals and bass, and Matt Schulz on drums; with this line up, Enon released "High Society" in 2002.

Lee left the band, and Enon went on to release "Hocus Pocus" in 2003, and a collection of rare material entitled "Lost Marbles and Exploded Evidence" was released in 2005.

Enon performed on an October 2008 episode of Yo Gabba Gabba! titled "Robot".
In a May 2011 interview, after touring with Caribou for a good portion of 2010 and 2011, Schmersal confirmed the band "is pretty much over" with no plans to follow up on Grass Geysers...Carbon Clouds.

In 2011 and 2012, Toko Yasuda toured as a member of St. Vincent playing synth. She also released the album Parthenon under the name Plvs Vltra. Parthenon is her first solo album which features collaborations with Danny Ray Thompson of the Sun Ra Arkestra, Scott Allen of Thunderbirds Are Now!, Thomas Keville of Man Man, and John Schmersal, also of Enon, who produced the album.

on Knock That Door

Yup... just another good song by Enon. But wait! This song is an all-time great. I searched Enon on Spotify, and I knew all the top 5 most popular songs but this one. I knew and liked all the other top 5 Enon songs, so I just listened to this and didn't begin to regret it.

on Spanish Boots

Opportunity nooses than hang beyond the shade(?)
Machiavellian stooges that feign whatever's said
South Floridian ruses with nothing left to sell
Polynesian(?) amusements that fall under the spell

Having the same conversation,
The same hell
Then mainly for yourself

Oh it's the same kind of aim
At the game dealt
And mainly for yourself
For the better of your health

Vanished loot are the riches
That lay upon the breast
Spanish Boots for the witches
That kiss before the test

Gotta loom on the fixes
Bare waste and so severe
Minor shoots at the pieces
Lies burnt to stay, oh it's all so in vain

That it's the same conversation,
The same hell
Then mainly for yourself

Oh it's the same pile of names at the game,
Hell, then mainly for yourself
For the better of your health

Oh it's the same conversation,
The same hell
Then mainly for yourself

Oh it's the same pile of names at the game,
Hell, then mainly for yourself

Oh it's the same conversation,
The same hell
Then mainly for yourself

Oh it's the same pile of names at the game,
Hell, then mainly for yourself
For the better of your health
