“No Sky Today is the brainchild of guitar supremo Wayne Findlay (Slavior/MSG) and Paul Jones (Robot Lords of Tokyo) With all music written and produced by Findlay and all vocals and lyrics written by Jones, the two of them have come up with an absolutely blistering slice of rock guaranteed to set even the most subdued senses tingling. For me, it feels like all my birthdays have come at once! The only way to play this album is LOUD! Findlay and co have found a wonderful balance throughout, blending heart-pumping rock and searing vocals with some exceptionally delicate touches and simply wonderful keyboards, 'Escape' conveying this to the full.'Intermezzo' is a pure exhibition of just how talented Findlay is on both guitar and keyboards - quite stunning. No Sky Today' is a beautifully produced piece and, if you like your rock big, bold and with huge guitars, then this is most definitely for you. This quite simply has to be one of my albums of the year. Absolutely bloody marvellous! ”

“NO SKY TODAY is the self-titled debut album project led by Wayne Findlay, known for working with Michael Schenker Group, and Paul Jones (Robot Lords Of Tokyo).The music that this collective presents in the U.S. turns out to be a very pleasant surprise. The 12 tracks that make up this hard work create a very balanced, both in the quality of his compositions, both in musical direction then.In No Sky Today we hear a heavy modern rock with heavy riffs and strong melodic lines, accompanied by an exemplary rhythm section and a voice that fits perfectly into the music created. Throughout the disc can still enjoy the keyboard Wayne Findlay, who is ever the right time.The influences seem to be different. Certainly the band was "drinking" inspiration to a number of bands with different sounds something, which is one of gains that contributed to the quality of this disc, along with the modern sound and production quality.A disk that has no music to "fill".A band to keep in mind!!. ”

“NO SKY TODAY - No Sky Today Rating: 12 out of 15 points Next year should really let the world crumble and the sky above us, it would be comforting if it were heard in this moment of music No Sky Today. Wayne Findlay, who also resonates with the Michael Schenker Group on guitar/keys, and singer Paul Jones. The two have written twelve songs that captivate through the magnificent voice of singer Paul and shine with a clever diversion. Hard rock riffs mingle with sophisticated melodies and catchy to remember choruses offer that you only get out of my head hard. So the fans of this music could already by the opener "No Sky Today" feel compelled to operate their repeat button on the player. Balladic tones that are audible in the quieter songs. Paul Jones at the microphone is a genuine musical gain and impressed with his penetrating singing. It is so gratifying to know that No Sky Today already working on next album to come soon, fortunately on the market. I'm looking forward to it! ”

“83/100!!! NO SKY TODAY, from San Diego, California, is the band of Wayne Findlay, rhythm guitarist and keyboard player of the MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP (since 1999) & SLAVIOR and of vocalist Paul Jones (ROBOT LORDS OFTOKYO). This is my first acquaintance with Jones and man, believe me, this guy is a great singer. Findlay proves to be an excellent guitar player as well with his fantastic riffs and solo's. He is not only a good guitarist, but also a fantastic songwriter, because the songs are great compositions. The tracks are solid metal songs with a fantastic groove. In fact, No Sky Today is a very enjoyable album, which doesn't bore at all. The album was produced by Findlay, and sounds very good. NO SKY TODAY already started recording/ writing songs for their second album. Well, I'm looking forward to it, because I'm sure that will be a fantastic album as well, just like this one. Check this band out, because they deserve it, and most of all they KICK ASS. Well done guys.”

“No Sky Today The founding members of this band are Wayne Findlay on guitars/keyboards and Paul Jones on Vocals. The first is known from the Michael Schenker group and Paul from the bands Robot Lords and Tokyo. With the Michael Schenker Group Wayne always played the second violin, but on this album he can show what he is capable of on guitar and keys. Another talent he shows is the ability to write good songs. I couldn't find a weak one on this album. The music is hard rock with a progressive touch, some modern influences and a little bit of metal vibe. Paul has a nice voice with a rough edge and he fits the style perfectly. Strong melodies go hand in hand with catchy choruses and good guitar solos. "Final Hour" has a nice bass line that carries the song. One of the songs I like the most is "Pieces", a song that has all the the elements in it; nice guitar riffs, melody, aggression and emotional vocals.A very nice record which offers a lot for everyone that is into the harder rock genre.”

“No Sky Today “No Sky Today” (Capital City Music Factory) Whooaah – kick ass US hard rock and rolling groove! Fronted by Wayne Findlay (MSG) and Paul Jones (Robot Lords Of Tokyo), NST have a trippy but heavy groove added which kinda reminded me of Trouble back when they were on Def Jam. There’s also something else again with that Trouble connection, that the music isn’t contrived but that the Findlay / Jones collusion is based on a genuine spark of talent and dare I say it, honesty in the riffs and passion in the lyrics. Whatever the case, hard rockin songs like ‘Real Life’, ‘Final Hour’ and ‘Gear Grinder’ have already made their impact with over 40,000 Touchtunes digital jukeboxes playing them loud n proud in clubs, bars and diners rockin out across the USA. ”

“Cor: One can be grabbed by the massive, catchy riffs immediately, although this might sound filthier and maybe even funky at times, compared to his work with his famous employer Michael Schenker. No Sky Today is a band formed by Wayne Findlay, better known as the rhythm guitarist of the German axe man. With his band Slaviour he released some previous material as a solo artist. Accompanied by a very effective rhythm section and very well chosen singer (Paul Jones of Robot Lords Of Tokyo), some attractive heavy rock music is presented. Sometimes this reminds you of Audioslave or Alice In Chains, but can also bring back memories of Ozzy’s ‘No More Tears’ period; driving massive riffs, containing the perfect balance between heavy and melodic, and a few suitable dissonant elements. Recommended! Rating: 80/100 ”
