Nomeansno (2011)

On a recent Kreative Kontrol episode, Mark Molnar mentioned his fondness for a radio interview I once conducted with Tom Holliston, John Wright, and Rob Wright from Canada’s greatest band, Nomeansno. And so, here’s that interview, which occurred over breakfast at the By the Way Café in Toronto, Ontario on April 5, 2011. It’s one of my most cherished work life experiences, so thank you again to Nomeansno, whose entire catalogue is now available on streaming services, and Alternative Tentacles is reissuing their catalogue in physical forms too.

To hear this entire conversation, subscribe to Kreative Kontrol on Patreon at the $6 U.S. tier or higher (a reminder that an annual subscription includes a discount compared to a monthly one).
