No were an Australian band, active during the late 1980s. They blended electronic music with nihilistic punk rock, in a similar fashion to New York's Suicide. The band was formed by Ollie Olsen (Whirlywirld, Orchestra of Skin and Bone), Marie Hoy (Sacred Cowboys, Orchestra of Skin and Bone) and Michael Sheridan (Great White Noise, Transwaste),[1] later including John Murphy (Whirlywirld, Orchestra of Skin and Bone) and others.[2][3] They released a self-titled 12" EP (1988) and two LPs; Glory for the Shit for Brains (1987), and Once We Were Scum, Now We Are God (1989).[4]
