No Singles compiles ten previously-released tracks, five tracks each from from 2007's All Lies EP and 2008's Lullaby Death Jams EP. Clearly, no singles were released from the record.
There is an obvious nod to The Boss on Darkness on the Edge of Gastown, which is a pretty good track, though it seems to have nothing racing out at the trestles. Sexual Aerosol might be the best track on the LP, but who knows?
The Japandroids are not from Japan. They are not droids either, as far as I can determine.The band is a duo, much like The White Stripes and what The Black Keys
used to be. The description from Wikipedia, is interesting:
"Japandroids' music has been described as "one part classic rock, one part punk",due to their blending of classic rock influences such as Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty, with punk rock influences such as the Replacements and Hüsker Dü." [source]
The Springsteen influences are obvious on the track Darkness On The Edge Of Gastown from the band's 2008 EP Lullaby Death Jams.
Post-Nothing was the band's first LP, but this release was preceded by two EPs (including the aforementioned EP), which were later collected on the No Singles compilation.
