No Coast is Braid’s first album in 16 years. It's a measured, gorgeous record that ought to remind fans why they fell in love with Braid's brand of post-punk/emo in the first place.
According to Pitchfork, "... No Coast is an inspired record for a very tangible reason that goes beyond associating with an in-demand producer (Will Yip) and a hip new label: Braid have taken stock of their own lives as unintentional elder statesmen and treat it as worthwhile subject matter."
As such, it was no surprise to us when the album cracked Billboard’s Top 200 in 2014.
