NO Release What’s Your Name / Eleven Eleven 7″ on White Iris Records
STREAM: “What’s Your Name”

Indie rock quintet NO releases What’s Your Name / Eleven Eleven 7″ today on White Iris (Best Coast, FIDLAR, Guards, Fool’s Gold). Outstanding
vocals paired with a sound full of meaning and purpose, these tracks hit home
and stay with you. Dubbing themselves “Post-Hymnal Anthematic,” their sound
stems from the desire to collectively sing and yell while driving others to do the same.
‘What’s Your Name’, the A-Side on this release, is a beautifully ethereal track
that offers a modern twist on the classic New Wave sound. As subtle as the
whistles during the bridge, there is something behind the dark fuzzed-out
guitars on this track that gives it an uplifting feel. This blending of tones
makes for a truly unique song that is nothing if not infectious. ‘Eleven
Eleven’ presents the counterbalance to ‘What’s Your Name’. With
dark synths and commanding vocals featured prominently on this track,
it almost calls to mind Interpol in their prime without losing NO’s
signature sound.
NO began in Echo Park as a home recording project in July 2011. In a small
house on Mohawk Street a group of friends began building something to
represent their collective ethos of searching for the more authentic elements
in music and in themselves. The band will be touring this fall including a date
with Best Coast at the Santa Monica Pier before hitting the road supporting
Electric Guest this October. Full list of tour dates are below.
