Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Brian Eno, this seminal compilation album is the definitive, horrifying document of the short-lived, fiercely abrasive New York No Wave scene. Featuring terrifyingly raw, atonal contributions from four defining bands, 'No New York' is an incredibly noisy, highly rhythmic, and deeply misanthropic avant-garde assault on traditional rock and roll.
