Episode 175: NoMeansNo

This week we’re discussing every album by NoMeansNo. Made up of core members and brothers Rob and John Wright, NoMeansNo helped pioneer math rock and post-hardcore, in addition to being possibly the only actual prog punk band ever. Their songwriting, arrangements, and performances were nothing short of legendary and decades ahead of their time. You guys wanted this episode, so get ready.

Closing track: “Junk” from Small Parts Isolated and Destroyed (1988)
