13. No Age "Eraser"

Coated in feedback and fuzz, No Age's "Eraser" is noisy but not in the Liars-They Were Wrong, So We Drowned kind of way. "Eraser" is propelled by an acoustic guitar riff that would almost seem home in a Who song. Surging with noise and thundering drums, "Eraser" is explosive, catchy and incredibly melodic and that's before Dean Spunt's vocals come in. All this comes in a neat little 2:41-minute package, "Eraser" proves No Age to be at the forefront of L.A.'s art-punk movement.
