Band Spotlight: Chalk Li

Today has certainly been a remarkably exciting day over at the No Guidance HQ! Earlier in the day, we posted the stream and download to the debut Youth Funeral EP, Symptom of Time. For those of you who missed it, it's available on Youth Funeral's Bandcamp page or for stream below.

Now, we are pleased to reveal the first track from the new Chalk Li EP! This first track, titled "Knew," shows Chalk Li further refining and expanding upon the punk and emo sound first shown on display on their previous EP, their self-titled.

This EP is going to be the second cassette release by the No Guidance Collective! We will post more information and photos of both the Youth Funeral and Chalk Li cassettes as we have them.


More about Chalk Li: As part of the new wave of bands revitalizing the emo sound that was made popular in the 90's, Chalk Li sets themselves apart from their peers by eschewing angular "twinkly" guitar riffs in favor of a more melodic and structured approach, as a mixture of hoarse and clean vocals are guided by a tight rhythm section and dual guitars that harmonize and supplement each other as they weave in and out of fluid and carefully-measured passages.
