Nomeansno Rock Out Agelessly

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) April 20, 2009 1:47 pm
Nomeansno — bassist Rob Wright, drummer John Wright and guitarist Tom Holliston — still rock in 2009. Considering NMN have delivered progressive punk rock since 1979, their shocks of white hair and grandfatherly faces should be expected. After all, they aren't spring chickens anymore. It's still a jolt to behold, though. To imagine them as...

NoMeansNo Rage On

in
By Cameron Gordon (CHARTattack) September 25, 2006 4:30 pm
Any time Victoria's NoMeansNo come to town, you know it's going to be aggressive, bizarre and intense. Saturday's gig at the Horseshoe was no exception, as the trio burned through a two-hour set of crowd favourites and tracks from their recently released All Roads Lead To Ausfahrt full-length. NoMeansNo have been recording and touring since the...

NoMeansNo — All Roads Lead To Ausfahrt

in
By Cameron Gordon (CHARTattack) August 22, 2006 11:44 am
The Wright brothers have always been a blip on the Can-rock radar. And that's a good thing, because it's allowed the boys to take their band, NoMeansNo, to many weird and wonderful places over the past 25-plus years. Their latest full-length, for all its implied eccentricity, features all the earmarks of a typical NMN disc: pummelling drums,...

Nomeansno And Hanson Brothers Cross Canada

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) March 30, 2009 2:28 pm
"Nomeansno is our career," says John Wright. "The Hanson Brothers isn't. "I'm not retiring on the Hanson Brothers, so we're not trying to maximize our exposure. There are no statements. It's all just stupidity and fun." Talking to the Nomeansno drummer and Hanson Brothers vocalist is like dealing with a split...

Nomeansno will play in Japan in March before returning to perform in their homeland. The band may also schedule some American dates, but a Jan. 8 blog entry on the their MySpace page cheekily...

The Hanson Brothers Lace Up Their Skates

in
By Rob Brown (CHARTattack) January 16, 2002 5:30 pm
Well now, don't it just seem right for d'em good 'ole Vancouver boys to be touring the country — or at least those parts of the country that have a professional team that partakes in the national pastime of shooting a thick plastic circle across a frozen pond. The Hanson Brothers, the hockey-themed alter-egos of Nomeansno (not to be confused...

While Tattersall was in university, her apartment was robbed. All of her CDs were stolen — except...
