"..........No Arm, one of the best unsigned bands at the moment. They do, quite definitely, have arms. If not quite the full complement of working fingers - the singer's got a couple strapped together following a dispute with a lamp post. Mark E would surely be proud. All right, I promise that's the last time I will ever mention the Fall in relation to No Arm. Yes there are odd bits here and there that resemble the Marc Riley era of Manchester's most persistent, but so much more. Some explosive stop-start punky thrashes that sound like Pavement at warp-speed. Their Wire-like ability to blend spiky post-punk with slivers of tuneful hook. They look good, standing in classic power trio formation, bassist stalking about in his corner and prettier-than-he-sounds frontman hammering at his guitar over on the left. It's rather hard to tell what any of the songs are called as they seem to change their mind quite a bit - no matter, they're all good. The bass drum pedal flies off somewhere. They finish on the quite brilliant "Unsound" (I think) - a chaotic wonder that all comes together at the end. Surely this band’s days propping up the bottom of bills are numbered" - CATH AUBERGINE. manchestermusic.co.uk
