After releasing their debut EP this past August, alternative rock quintet NO LIGHT is now set to release the debut album Gemini through Indisciplinarian in November– a record boasting with fine songwriting and intense musical performances from a team of competent musicians with urgent matters on their mind. The first single “I.R.W.M.A.M.W.T.O.” is now premiering exclusively via New Noise Magazine.
NO LIGHT is a new Danish rock band consisting of five experienced gentlemen with a past in such notable ensembles as Lack, The Fashion, and Marvins Revolt. The quintet writes honest, energetic and not at least super melodic songs that might invoke reminiscences of the 1990s golden age of noise rock, but also have roots in the tradition of grand ole songwriters such as Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young.
The band released their self-titled debut EP earlier in 2016, but now, relatively short after the first offering, we have their debut album Gemini at hand – a timeless rock album built on good songwriting and intense musicianship with all basic tracks recorded in one day in Copenhagen by producer Lasse Ballade (Solbrud, Halshug). The album’s first single “I.R.W.M.A.M.W.T.O.” (I Really Wanna Make A Mark With This One) is now exclusively premiering via New Noise Magazine.

The prevailing theme of Gemini and also “I.R.W.M.A.M.W.T.O.” is soul searching. The ten songs circle about being caught up between youth culture and adult life and the processing of the shame, the insufficiency and the fear that comes with the changes of age. Gemini is the sound of five men who in a thematically embrace with their age and lives still have something to say in a musical form that appears forever young and essential, when carried out in such a sincere manner as NO LIGHT does it.
NO LIGHT‘s debut album Gemini will be released November 25th via Indisciplinarian on vinyl and digital formats. “I.R.W.M.A.M.W.T.O.” will soon be accompanied by a video created by Plastic Kid (Kashmir, Veto, BMTH) (identical with lead singer Jakob Printzlau) and more singles and visual material will follow. In celebration of the album release, NO LIGHT will play a release show at Lygtens Kro in Copenhagen on December 8th and more shows are to be announced in the coming months.
