- Stumbled across an eerily familiar sound while playing through the wee Fender Frontman amp that I rescued from the streets a few weeks back. It was oddly like reuniting with an old friend. Here’s three NMN bits with “that” guitar/amp sound, that I dug out of my distant memory:
The Day Everything Became Nothing, The Tower, and Rags And Bones.
The vocal combination of you and Rob singing together was magic.
Had the pleasure of being in one you bands that supported Nomeansno in Manchester UK in the early 90s, 92 I think. I was drummer for the Slum Turkeys . Great Times. We also supported you in Newport Wales
Making me cry since 1980something...
Aww, thanks EF.
Big smile on my face.
yesssss...... merci beaucoup !!!!! j'aime tellement nomeansno ! ça fait du bien ....
The Beast has arisen...
My brother sent me this and a few licks in, without seeing the title, I thought, "Hm. That guy's playing these exactly like if he played them a zillion times live." You can see muscle memory right away. Economy of motion. Very nice.
Thank you!
Best most underknown band ever. I have been a fan since the late 80s and been listening ever since, unlike anything, adrenaline inducing raw intensity combined with mind bending, gripping and provocative music and lyrics...especially live.
Andy kerrs albums with nomeansno were the best of them. Better songs, better vocalist, better guitarist
Whoever is the miserable fool that put a thumbs down on this what's the use I mean what are you the world's critic or something I've been waiting years to hear Andy play some more guitar I'm glad you're ripping it buddy hell yeah if you're down here in California I'd say it's time for a jam they don't call me the bass man for nothing cheers!!!!!
Happy to see ur ok and still rockin'! Greetings from Russia!
More please
So cool to see these riffs by themselves. There's so many little touches that I didn't realize made the songs what I really enjoy!
Hey, now that NMN is officially dead, you could start a revival band? I would come to see your shows!
Thank you thank you thank you
Thanks Andy this is absolutely wonderful! Nomeansno from your time in the band is my absolute favorite band of all time. I occasionally play the lottery for one reason, so I could afford to send dump truck loads of money to your houses until you agree to play one more show.
best old riffs ever!
This is so freaking awesome. My favorite guitarist ever. Fuck yes.
absolutely rad hearing the guitar parts in isolation (no geeky fan pun intended), thanks! such a great band and so many great memories at concerts over the years and also just listening at home!!
Thanks Ethan!
Welcome back sir, from Scotland.
I’m so happy I found this. Thanks for posting!! Not that it matters but Wrong & 0+2=1 are both desert island albums for me.. ❤️
Thank you
Ahh good stuff
Hey Andy! Longtime fan here. If you did a video series playing through all them wonderful NMN riffs, I would not complain. Just sayin :) super fun to watch. Hope all is well!
Oh, you're actually the dude from the band? Sorry, I didn't know 'til I read the comments. I love Wrong. Great friggin album, that for some reason isn't on Spotify! I didn't immediately recognize the first one, but I knew instantly when you went into "The Tower." And I went "yes!" out loud when I heard you start "Rags and Bones." What a friggn' song. The higher part, that kick-ass chord thing right before the chorus, that has got to be one of the catchiest guitar parts ever. Sorry for not knowing you guys well enough that I recognized your name. I don't know any of your names. But Wrong is a classic. Why the hell is it not on Spotify?? Other stuff by you guys is. Wtf.
You still sound awesome, btw.
Thanks Raymond!
NMN, gone but far from forgotten. Still getting played in this house. What happened to Two Pin Din? Anything else in the works?
Raaags and bones.. Are we finely aloooooone?
wow, i remember my brother got me the "wrong" vinyl-lp for xmas when i was 12 years old. he thought i wouldn't like it and he can take it. he was WRONG 😂🤣
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What amp(s) were you using back then? NMN (especially your era) totally shaped my musical madness. Your sister (I think?) tried to video call you from a show a few years ago where I was wearing the "kill everyone now" shirt that I had bought at a BC show in 89/90. (I'm in Tacoma, WA)
So fucking cool. Thanks for posting!
not sure who this guy is but he nails that tone! hehe
what was that wedge amp you always had on stage?
Sounds killer! Sounds weird to hear these riffs by themselves after hearing the original songs so much. Any chance you could tell me how to get this sound? What settings did you have dialed in? Would love to replicate this sound.
Nothing short of perfection :) . Just a small question, have you always had humbucker pickups in your Telecasters?
Thanks! I played two Telecasters in my time in NMN. My 'main' guitar was a Schecter from the early 80s. That had two Schecter Superock humbuckers. The other Tele that I had was a black mid to late 70s Fender Telecaster Custom that I bought to use as a backup guitar for live shows. It had a neck humbucker and a single coil pickup at the bridge, both original. I swapped out the single coil for a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails. I did use that Tele from time to time live (for instance, when my I broke a string or my Schecter was in the shop) but, to be honest, I never thought it sounded as good as my Schecter did.
Hope that answers your question!
Cheers,
Andy
@@blankfrank07 thanks a lot!
World Tour 2019!!!
I love you, Andy! Please respond!
No reverb. Respect.
Ÿeah I mean the Wright Brothers along with watt/hurley (minutemen) are the most formidable rhythm section of punk/ post modern history HOWEVER Kerr made the early NMN something special....no disrespect or disregard to Holliston and nmn post '91 but it was not youth that made the difference, most consider Kerr Era nmn special for a reason, as well as he was an integral part of the sound and songwriting process, Holliston was basically just filling out the sound and was playing on top of the music as opposed to Kerr being a part of the music, as well as lending energy I just don't think they ever regained again
