Javelin have announced a U.S. tour to promote their first official full length album No Mas. They will be joined by Yeasayer, (whose album debuts April 20) for their April dates.

“George was pretty damn eclectic as a kid,” says Tom Van Buskirk, referring to his bandmate/cousin George Langford. “I was more of a snob, growing up on the Beatles and classical music. Like I didn’t get into Nirvana until after MTV Unplugged came out. I’m always late to the party.” Langford spoke about their aesthetic stating, “I love making music that has flaws and human fingerprints all over it. There’s also that grey area where you can’t tell what’s a sample, although it leaves you wanting to say, ‘Hey, I did that!’” But what's their sound? Langford says "The minute I start working in one style, I get distracted and want to work on another one. We kinda gave up on finding our ’sound’ years ago.”
