Nomeansno
Of Canaduh
In 1991, Canadian noise architects Nomeansno paid tribute to two of the bands that helped make it all possible with Oh, Canaduh, a two-song blast of punk history that's finally getting another spin on Alternative Tentacles Records! Originally released as the tenth release on artist (and Alternative Tentacles art director) John Yates' legendary Allied Recordings, the 7" became the label's best-selling single of all time. Now, this long-unavailable slice of Canadian punk history returns, remastered and sounding better than ever, according to Nomeansno's John Wright and Andy Kerr, as well as Jello Biafra himself. The reissue also features brand-new artwork by John Yates, incorporating nods to the legendary bands that inspired the original release. The A-side takes on "Oh, Canaduh," the unofficial punk anthem originally released by Vancouver's Subhumans in 1978. Flip the record and you'll find their take on D.O.A.'s "New Age," a song from the Vancouver hardcore legends' landmark debut album in 1980.
