Armed with little more than a massively fuzzed-up guitar and ferociously pounded drum kit, No Age's sloppy, restless sound is true art-punk bliss. Echoing the primitivist minimalism of Beat Happening and the rough-around-the-edges aesthetic of early '80s punk, guitarist Randy Randall and singer/drummer Dean Spunt submerge pretty melodies in layers of distortion, reverb, and pummeling tom-work, and the LA-based duo's much-blogged-about live performances (which even earned them an adoring nod in the New Yorker) crash and burn just as often as they achieve poignant pop perfection.
