The new Boston sextet, whose style is some kind of fucked up mix of shoegaze, post-hardcore, alternative, indie, and grunge without ever being only one or two of those things at the same time.

No Nations is a rock band from Boston, MA, Garrett Gordon (bass), Kyle Neeson (vocals), Jason Perry (guitar and synth), Jason Seaver (drums), Steve Trombley (guitar), and Wormwood.
The new Boston sextet, whose style is some kind of fucked up mix of shoegaze, post-hardcore, alternative, indie, and grunge without ever being only one or two of those things at the same time. Conceived by guitarist Erik Wormwood, many of the players in No Nations have played together in past bands, with a musical DNA that runs deep in the Boston and New England music scene, extending to the likes of I am become Death, Suffer on Acid, Kimachi, Cocked N Loaded, Polarbaron, The Vershok, Mean Creek, Marconi, and countless others you saw that one time at that venue somewhere.
It’s easy to call No Nations a pandemic project, but in reality, it’s so much more than that. It’s six musicians filling the blanks in their lives and their own battles with creativity, calling upon camaraderie and a desire to create art at a time when art is devalued more than ever. It’s a drive to communicate and collaborate, having a voice as the world burns around us, channeling lives spent in practice spaces and basements and rock clubs and bars and connecting with others who share these common interests. And it catches a wave of heavy Massachusetts bands beginning to make names for themselves -- groups like Crescent Ridge, Broken Head, Weatherless, Blood Built Empire -- and bringing gaps that often exist in the city’s disperate music scenes, where barriers and borders have existed for decades, and only recently begun to erode. « hide |
