LA natives, No Age, have struck gold with their first full-length debut, Nouns. Their growth from Weirdo Rippers is the most defining aspect of this album, and it should encourage all lovers of rock music to give these guys a listen. On Nouns, No Age maintains their voluminous sound, but this time out they opt for more tightly written and clearly conceived songs. Static, fuzz, and bass are all still very much apart of the composition, but in a way that now adds to the overall cohesiveness of the LP. The entirety of Nouns is completely accessible, and you'll be surprised by it's level of depth. The tracks are short and sweet, leaving the listener satisfied, yet still eager to play the disc over and over again. Everything about Nouns is top-notch. It's pretty amazing that only two guys, Randy Randall and Dean Allen Spunt, can make such dynamic music. From the guitar riffs to the head-banging build-ups to the distorted yelling, No Age rocks the party that rocks the partay. I highly recommend picking up Nouns, and if you're ever in LA there's a good chance they'll be performing at Smell. People say great things about their live shows too. Standout tracks include: "Eraser", "Sleeper Hold", "Cappo", "Brain Burner", and "Teen Creeps". They don't really feature much on their myspace page, so go buy the CD before all your cool friends do.
