No Age at Deaf Institute

Having emerged from the incredible arts and music scene in LA’s The Smell, No Age have been revered as one of the best live bands in the world. They’ve played anti-Walmart fundraisers, they’ve purposely pissed off Converse for having the temerity to sponsor one of their shows, they’ve played a full set in Los Angeles river, and they’ve even been to Deaf Institute before. Uncompromising in their principles and utterly brutal in their execution, they’ve long been providing the blueprint for two-pieces around the world to follow – though none seem to be able to match the energy, intensity and sheer brilliance that No Age manage. Signed to Sub-Pop, this tour is to celebrate their latest LP, An Object – and you can listen to the first song from it, C’mon Stimmung, here

Thu 10 Oct, The Deaf Institute, 135 Grosvenor Street, M1 7HE, 8pm, £11.50, www.seetickets.com
