N.Y No Wave (why the second period is missing is anybody's guess) is what one No Wave historian calls a "non-canonical" overview. It spotlights many of the movement's central figures, among them James Chance and The Contortions, Mars, and Teenage Jesus and The Jerks. It also highlights artists who eventually moved beyond the genre's aesthetic (Lydia Lunch, Arto Lindsay), as well as musicians who were, however talented, only tangentially associated. These include the great Lizzy Mercier Descloux and her art project Rosa Yemen, along with notable No Wave forefathers Suicide.
