Nevermind all those nice adjectives folks heaped on Nouns-- No Age are all about the verbs at the moment. Shriek, thrash, holler, pummel, grin, leap, innovate, crowd-surf...these are but a few of the things you'll see No Age do in the live setting, and the duo is now poised to do those things in even more places with the recent addition of a number of North American dates.

The latest gigs find No Age buddying up with recent Thrill Jockey signees High Places (full disclosure: High Places include the sister of a former Pitchfork staffer) and their Smell-y, Skeletal pals Abe Vigoda. This very apt triptych kicks things off in the U.S. capital on July 8 and keeps rolling more or less straight on through to the Pitchfork Music Festival, at which both No Age and High Places will appear.

All three acts have plenty of dates besides, and No Age and High Places certainly ain't no strangers either. The two two-pieces rocked the crap out of New York City's Bowery Ballroom last night as No Age celebrated yesterday's release of Nouns on Sub Pop. Catch all the hot photo and tour date action below.
