Los Angeles noise rockers No Age have announced their follow-up to 2020's Goons Be Gone. They'll deliver People Helping People on September 16 via Drag City, after which they'll embark on a North American tour.
The 13-track effort is previewed today by lead single "Andy Helping Andy," which arrives alongside a Kersti Jan Werdal-directed music video that compiles manipulated stock footage of Andy Warhol.
The album itself was written prior to the pandemic, and later recorded in guitarist Randy Randall's garage. Promotional materials describe the work as a "broadcast of entirely lived-in proportions," and promise the band will deliver their most "accurate display of the No Age ethos" yet.
The duo will bring their new tunes on the road this fall starting with a performance in Madison, WI on October 12. The North American trek includes a pair of Canadian stops at Montreal's Bar Le Ritz PDB at Toronto's Lee's Palace, on October 24 and 25, respectively. Both Canadian dates will find the band joined by Syko Friend. Tickets for the tour go on sale Friday, June 8, via Ticketmaster.
