At last, one of the all-time bat legends, Nomeansno has returned to Alternative Tentacles Records. The entire catalog no less, starting with their most beloved album, Wrong. Using the original all-analog master, from the original mother, as engineered by George Horn, John Wright, and Jello Biafra. Nomeansno formed in a vacuum, in Victoria, British Columbia in 1979 and honing their sounds for years before relocating to Vancouver and releasing eleven albums over an almost forty year career, including a collaborative album with Jello Biafra, and numerous EPs and singles. Originally formed as a two-piece by brothers John and Rob Wright, and later joined by monster guitarist, Andy Kerr. Mixing hardcore punk, dark lyrics, and sophisticated arrangements boarding on prog, Nomeansno was massively influential and widely regarded as the first band to be referred to as "math rock". Originally released on Alternative Tentacles in 1989, Wrong stands on it's own and is still considered to be a much-loved classic. Allmusic called the album a masterpiece and a definitive jazz core album. In 2021, the album was voted by the public's to win the Canadian Polaris Heritage Prize to honor classic Canadian albums released before the creation of the award. In 2015, drummer John Wright described the album as their "most popular album by a country mile" and to the St. Louis Music Press of Wrong's success to the rise of alternative music and the success of Nirvana: "That's where all the buzz about us came from. We were touring throughout the States in the mid-80s, and we'd get a little bit of an audience here and there, but after a couple of years in Europe, we started doing some big shows there, and all of a sudden, people in the States were coming out to our shows. And we went from getting paid $200 to getting paid $1000. It was just like that. You had to have the buzz, and then it all just kind of blew up." Getting Nomeansno vinyl into stores is long overdue, so it all starts here with Wrong. Expect all vintage Nomeansno vinyl to systematically return in the days ahead.

    ...hing mir meine gesamte plattensamlung zum hals heraus.
    und so habe ich sie album für album an meinen hund verfüttert. und als der erste hund voll war, hab ich ihn weggepackt und den nächsten hund genommen. der punk musste weg, der hardcore musste weg und auch das ganze dubstep zeug - immer alles in den hund hinein!
    alsdann der ganze schiss verschwunden war, blieb im leeren zimmer nur noch platz für die heiligen nomeansno platten, welche ich in weiser voraussicht mehrfach erworben hatte.
    behende errichtete ich einen altar aus kanadischem maple ahorn, der einem hockey puck glich und welchen ich mit gravuren des gesichtes paul newmans beritzte. reliquiengleich hängte ich an seiner linken seite ein schnurrhaar joey ramones auf und um die symmetrie zu wahren anheftete ich rechts am altar die alte unterhose rob wrights, welche er am letzten hanson brothers konzert in der roten nur beinahe verlor.
    wo der altar so fertig war, begann ich die mehrfach gekauften platten pyramidal nach kanada gerichtet aufzuschichten.
    und zuoberst über den heiligsten nomeansno platten aller zeiten, auf ein podestchen aus niemals schmelzendem vancouverianischem canucks-heimstadion-eishockey-eis, legte ich sie: WRONG

    Diese CD ist eine der wenigen, die man sich nach Jahren noch anhören kann. Genial, ideenreich, dräckig!

  • ein klassiker des punks...

    ...und DER horror für alle kuschel-punks, die nichts als ihre vorkonfektionierten rancid, nofx oder deutsch-punk-mist kennen. punk muss so sein, wie es nomeansno seit jahren vorexerzieren: laut, musikalisch anspruchsvoll und gar nicht zwingend politisch!
