LP - Limited Edition Cloudy Clear / Black Galaxy Vinyl.
No Heroes is the sixth studio album released by American metalcore band Converge. It was released on October 24, 2006, through Epitaph Records. The album reached number 151 on the Billboard 200. The album was the first Converge album to be produced by Kurt Ballou with no input from other producers, at his own GodCity Studio and features artwork created by lead singer Jacob Bannon.
"No Heroes" shows the band exploring new sonic textures while still retaining the palpable energy they've become known for. While the album blazes out of the gate with the aptly titled "Heartache," songs like "Orphaned" and the intense "Plagues" prove that breakneck speed and heaviness aren't necessarily interrelated, and when Converge lower the tempo, they're able to effortlessly transcend traditional notions of heaviness. Devotees of "Jane Doe" will also be blown away by epic tracks like the nine-minute "Grim Heart/Black Rose," a doom masterpiece which features guest vocals from Only Living Witness' Jonah Jenkins. From Bannon's captivating artwork and introspective lyrics to Ballou's masterful production techniques, Converge's artistic vision has always separated the band from their peers, and "No Heroes" is no exception. Simply a great album.
