Sad news from the punk world today when No Use for A Name's Tony Sly was found dead today at the age of 41. Part of the wave of pop punk bands that came up in the late 80's and early 90's that included Lagwagon and Face To Face, No Use For A Name featured a revolving line up that once included Foo Fighter and Me First and the Gimme Gimme guitarist Chris Shiflett. As the years progressed, the band's work became more melodic without giving up it's punk edge. 2001's "Live in a Dive" or the 2007 compilation "All the Best Songs" both serve as great introductions to the band.
RIP Tony - Gone too soon
