Biography
No Use for a Name, from Sunnyvale, California, was a melodic punk band led by Tony Sly from 1989 until his death in 2012. Signed to #Fat Wreck Chords# after two early albums, the band released a run of fast, tuneful records including '¡Leche con Carne!', 'More Betterness!' and 'Hard Rock Bottom'. Frequent lineup changes never displaced Sly's songwriting, and the band dissolved after his sudden death.
