No Age - Everything in Between

Everything in Between by No Age

4...according to our on Thu 23 Sep, 2010.

Never been much of a fan of No Age but I'm down with the fact that they've used their relatively high profile as artists to expose, inspire and encourage fellow LA artists/musicians and punkers around the world. It's obvious they are doing good work for the music community but I'm just not that fussed with their music. 'Everything In Between' may be the record that changes my opinion as it contains 'Glitter', the first No Age tune that I really like. Also, this is varied and relatively experimental record that blurs the lines you associate with their sound and confronts and conquers new musical territory with relative ease. Some of the stuff on here is traditional, catchy and kinda poppy but there's a ton of more obscure sounding spaced out jams that evolve and mutate in mysterious and fun ways. Lets call it an album in two parts, one that reminds me of a better Wavves and the other that kinda delves into the murky world of modern kraut/shoegaze/psych stuff. It will no doubt satisfy old and new fans alike and (as usual) the art and design work is impeccable.

Recorded in Los Angeles from the end of 2009 and into
2010, ‘Everything In Between’ is the new album from No
Age, the duo of Dean Spunt and Randy Randall.

The band emerged from former band Wives in 2005 to
become No Age, worldwide glowing talismans for the DIY
art-punk scene in LA, now famously known as having its
epicenter at The Smell, a clubhouse where art-life/musiclife
welded and inspired a creative movement and attitude
which has fertilized a purple patch of likeminded punkers
and artists around the globe.

‘Everything In Between’ is a bold step in No Age’s creative
evolution. It is a culmination of reflecting upon life’s
ruptures and triumphs; the process of moving through
these moments banged and bruised, yet better off for the
wear and tear.

The band have pushed themselves in different and
challenging directions, deconstructing their weird-out pop
songs while still maintaining their original aesthetic and
intent.

‘Everything In Between’ sees No Age expand on the
emotional force at the core of their catchy songwriting
through tone, structure, noise, and samples.
