NO/MAS Shared Video For “Deny/Disgrace”

NO/MAS have shared the video for “DENY/DISGRACE.” Watch it here — and feel like you’ve been thrust right in the middle of a raging moshpit at a basement show.

“When the idea for a video came up, we wanted to show ourselves in one of our favorite environments,” the band says. “D.C house shows are how and why this band was started. We are excited for everyone to see where we came from.”

The band dropped their latest album Consume/Deny/Repent last year on Closed Casket Activities.

The band dispenses a face-ripping combination of grindcore, metal, death, and thrash that would cut deep a decade ago or a decade from now. The Washington, D.C. group — Roger Rivadeneira [vocals], John Letzkus [guitar], Patrick Merson [bass], and Henry Everitt [drums, vocals] — engage an uncompromising sensory assault, barreling forward like a runaway freight train only bolted to the rails by deft riffing, explosive drumming, and vocal brutality.

After racking up thousands of streams and receiving acclaim from Decibel, Metal Injection, and more, the band perfect this approach on their Closed Casket Activities debut, Consume/Deny/Repent.

“We wanted to make a record that was really riff-heavy and catchy,” states John. “It has more old school influences, but it’s also modern at the same time.”

“Thematically, we had specific things in mind, but the pandemic literally changed the world,” adds Roger. “It went from being a more conceptualized album to music that references what we were going through. That’s one thing we all agreed on.”

Working with producer Taylor Young in Los Angeles, they sharpened this approach to knifepoint precision.

“When we first started NO/MAS, I came up with a mantra for what the band is about,” the singer states. “We are against all forms of injustice. We want to bring awareness to mental health and the separation of church and state.” In the end, NO/MAS remain inimitable in their beatdown.
