No Age
No Age is an American noise rock duo consisting of guitarist Randy Randall and drummer/vocalist Dean Allen Spunt. The band is based in Los Angeles, California, and was signed to Sub Pop records from 2008 to 2013. No Age's fourth studio album, Snares Like a Haircut, was released by Drag City on January 26, 2018. Drag City also released Goons Be Gone, their fifth studio album, on June 5, 2020, and their sixth studio album People Helping People in 2022.
No Age formed in December 2005. Previously, Spunt had played bass and sung in Wives, alongside Randall on guitar. They played their first show at the New Image Art gallery for a show curated by friend and artist Rich Jacobs on January 22, 2006. Their second show was at The Smell in April 2006 with Mika Miko, BARR and more. "The Smell is where we got to experiment. It pushed the boundaries of whatever ideas we had about music and art—and we had a community to try out these new ideas," Randall told Drew Tewksbury in 2008. The band recorded 5 limited edition vinyl singles and EPs, and released them on 5 different labels on or around the same day, March 26, 2007. Designed by Brian Roettinger, Randall and Spunt, the back of each record's sleeve was a different color, and had one of the letters that, when you collected all of them, would join to spell "No Age." Half of the songs off these 5 EPs and singles were collected and released in album form under the title Weirdo Rippers, on June 11, 2007, through FatCat Records. The cover featured the exterior back wall of The Smell painted No Age and, below, Weirdo Rippers by Amanda Vietta, an artist and friend of No Age. The painting of The Smell can also be seen in the band's first music video for the song "Boy Void". No Age are known for their constant touring, community allegiance and playing un-traditional venues, such as their show at the Los Angeles River. A New Yorker article on the band from November 19, 2007, entitled Let It Rip earned them much acclaim and fans.
Buoyed by positive reviews in the music press, No Age signed to the prominent Seattle-based independent label Sub Pop. On January 25, 2008, No Age began a month-long, 23-date tour with New York City band Liars. Liars and No Age also released a joint 7-inch single limited to 1200 copies to coincide with the tour. 200 copies of the two-song single were sold on tour, with unique cover art for each individual city designed by Brian Roettinger, and the other 1000 featured hand letterpress-printed covers with different ink and vinyl color for each one. On May 6, 2008, No Age released their debut record for Sub Pop, Nouns. No Age appeared in an episode of VBS.tv "Practice Space," showing their Bushwick, New York practice space, which was inside of a wood shop. In May 2008, UK music magazine Mojo named No Age one of the top ten best new acts, beside Bon Iver and Sub Pop labelmates Fleet Foxes. Randall and Spunt, along with Roettinger were nominated for a Grammy for their design and packaging of the Nouns CD, which came with a 64-page book of art and photos.
The music video for No Age's song "Eraser" directed by Andy Bruntel debuted on June 27, 2008. The video begins with No Age's instrumental song "Impossible Bouquet" from Nouns, before it segues into "Eraser".
A No Age music video for the song "Goat Hurt" is included on a DVD entitled New Video Works released by Dean Spunt's label, Post Present Medium. The song is off of the band's out of print Dead Plane EP, but was also available through a limited edition 10-inch EP made available at the Fuck Yeah! festival held in L.A. on August 30, 2008. The video was directed by Mika Miko's Jennifer Clavin.
The group released the 4 song EP Losing Feeling on October 6, 2009, on Sub Pop. The release had a companion zine called "Losing Feeling" made by the band and Brian Roettinger that was for sale with pre-orders and also at art book stores Ooga Booga in Los Angeles and Printed Matter, Inc. in New York. The zine was in an edition of 200.
On April 1, 2010, No Age performed a Live Score at the REDCAT in Los Angeles for the film Aanteni directed by Todd Cole for the fashion designers Rodarte. The film includes original No Age music.
On June 24, 2010, No Age announced their new album, Everything in Between, along with the track listing. On July 28, No Age premiered the first single from the album, "Glitter", on a BBC 6 Music interview with Steve Lamacq. On August 10, the album's cover was released, and plans to release two "Glitter" singles were announced, along with their respective covers. The singles were released on August 24. Everything In Between was released on September 28, 2010, to generally favorable reviews.
