Rating: happy This record left our Brain damagedmouse feeling happy.

Loved that No Age 12" with the really mardy lass on a swing. She had a face that said "I've just stabbed my parents. Do you wanna help me drink this bottle of Cider? Then we can go burn down that church....!!!" At least 3/4 of us are really getting to love this Sub Pop 7", 'Eraser' too. It's really bloomin' fine indeed. The guitar initially reminds me of '10:15 Saturday Night' by The Cure. Then they've got this hazy tremolo thing going on which makes their amped-up Americana really woozy & comforting. Yeah it's a really succint call to arms stomper with soul. Phil immediately gets his classic Built to Spill placard out and whacks me in the face with it. It's nearly as dented as the Boards of Canada, Pavement & Sonic Youth ones but not quite. Reckon there's a bit of mileage in it. The 3 brief tracks on the flip range between trebly Pavement-go-futuristic stuff to Ramones-in-a-miniscule-dustbin style fuzz rock to further explorations in shimmering guitar atmospherics, like I wish post rock would at least try to sound. So all these sweet bursts of sonic joy are very different, all compulsive snippets of the imaginations of two forward thinking gutter rock minds. The best thing i've heard on Sub Pop for a (no) age! x Brian

What the label says:

Spiritual heirs to both Thurston Moore's wide-eyed experimentalism and the all-encompassing, stark DIY art-is-life aesthetic of the Crass collective,No Age is the kind of band that inspires its audience without affectation, without cynicism. Its live shows are an exploration of possibilities: a guitar laid over a resonating drum head, effect loops woven together like beautiful harmonies, pop songs as performance art, a duo that sounds like the gale force of rock history delivered through a wind tunnel. The pair's powerful force, both as a band and individuals has reached such heights to inspire such mainstream press as The New Yorker and The Los Angeles Times to feature No Age's ties to the underground scene surrounding the Los Angeles all-ages club The Smell. Elsewhere, No Age's members have impacted multiple mediums in a way that tastefully denies rampant cynicism. The duo's music effortlessly blends piercing noise blasts with hummable melodies, textural loops and crashing drums taking on their own lulling beauty.

About the humble 7":

The humble 7" is the smallest of the vinyl formats (not including the ridiculous 5") and it's the perfect medium for transporting a couple of new songs by up and coming bands straight into your ears. They're fun and they take up less space in your house than something bigger would. They come in a plethora of exciting colours and fantastical packages, and you can fit about 14 minutes onto one 7". You may have to get up every few minutes to put a new record on but think of the exercise. Don't forget every record you buy plays at least 2 speeds (depending on your stereo) and you need to play all records on all speeds to get the maximum joy from your purchase.
