The Very Best of Elastic No-No Band So Far

The Very Best of Elastic No-No Band So Far is the first official CD release of the antifolk group Elastic No-No Band.

It is a compilation of home-recorded tracks taken from the four lo-fi CD-R albums that Justin Remer recorded using the name Elastic No-No Band, augmented by five songs performed by the trio formation of the band.

Four of the songs included here -- "I Am Klaus Kinski (And This Is My Song)," "Cheese Fries," "(Everywhere I Look) I See Your Face," and "A Modest Proposal (For Laura Cantrell)"—were re-recorded in different arrangements on Elastic No-No Band's first studio album, My 3 Addictions.

Three of the other songs -- "Run-DMC," "Let's Fuck," and "Turn Out Right"—were re-recorded in different arrangements on the band's second studio album, Fustercluck!!!, with new, slightly altered titles.
