Say what you will of Pitchfork (The Deli despises their judgmental, patronizing, ‘this-is-the-truth-period” style reviews), but it’s commendable that they still manage to highlight albums and artists that are seemingly coming out of nowhere. In the case of NYC Noise Pop band Aye Nako, it stings having to admit that they beat us real bad in finding out about them… here’s some damage control!
This Brooklyn based raw, punk-driven, no BS rockers combine great riffs with the power vocals of Mars Ganito – the results could be described as Dinosaur Jr. from the golden years with a different vocalist. The band, which openly stands for personal sexual discovery, recently scored a (really good) Pitchfork review for their new self-released and rebellious album titled ‘Unleash Yourself,’ which both rocks hard and hooks you with its catchy composure. The band is set to play The Living Gallery in Brooklyn on July 9th with Chemical Peel, In School and Extra Feeler. Check out the song “Cut it Off” from their new record below! –Michael Haskoor (@Tweetskoor)
