No Age - Losing Feeling EP

To hear Losing Feeling is to see a nail tapped squarely on its head. Its title track starts with a mischievous, time-skewed riff served up in stereo before the unabashed pop-punk kicks in. In four minutes the LA duo show and prove their Hüsker Dü-like mettle, all innovative and infectious. They further demonstrate their versatility with Genie, as close to a lullaby as they've commited to wax yet: sugary and soothing but wholeheartedly distorted. Following the dreamy ambience of Aim at the Airport, they drop the curtain with the sweaty, sun-bleached You're A Target. No Age don't need to prove a thing, but here they hammer home their uncompromising style and keep it catchy as they go. Never a mean feat in 14 minutes.
