The WireCaught somewhere between the big yucks and the thoughtful overview are moments of genuine strangeness that are both captivating and unsettling. [#255, p.59]
-
The music won't knock you on your ass, but the overall delivery is a real treat, if you go in for this sort of thing.
-
As opposed to the didactic nature of the booklet, the audio portion of No Business tends more toward arch satire of the ongoing debate over fair use in digital media, creating a précis of its contradictions and ideological schisms rather than advancing a particular thesis.
-
No Business is one of the least surprising albums Negativland has yet done, but one entity's repetition is another's source of continuing inspiration, and the end results are familiarly entertaining.
-
As "art", the album is fine. It's quirky, it's humorous, it makes its point.
-
Like most of Negativland's oeuvre, No Business makes valid points via sometimes-annoying sounds.
