About the Band:
Formed in 2005, Randy Randall and Dean Allen Spunt comprise the LA based noise-pop band No Age. With two full length albums under their belt, these Sub Pop signed rockers continue to push sonic boundaries, while blurring the line between art, design and music. During a successful tour with New York based Liars in 2008, they released a joint 7” single limited to only 1200 copies, with a Hand Held Heart designed typographic treatment denoting the city of the show as the cover. The bands most recent release, Nouns, was nominated for Best Recording Package at this year’s Grammy Awards.
