WHAT IT IS: Joey Valence & Brae follow the success of their debut album, PUNK TACTICS (187m+ streams to date), with sophomore LP NO HANDS, a 12-track collection with features from Danny Brown, Z-Trip and Terror Reid. The title is a nod to the duo’s independence; they self-produced every track in Valence’s State College, Pa., bedroom studio. NO HANDS is an evolution of their sound, combining breakbeats with electronic and alternative production and lyrics full of witty pop-culture references.
