Silver Haze is the second album by the American punk band Aye Nako, released via Don Giovanni Records on April 7, 2017.[1]
In contrast to the band's earlier work, the album's songwriting is split between singer Mars Dixon and guitarist Jade Payne.
"Particle Mace" from the album was released as a single.[2]
The album received a 7.9 score from Pitchfork, with Matthew Ismael Ruiz stating it "feels like the best of Aye Nako". Peter Ellman, reviewing for Exclaim!, gave it 8/10, commenting on how the band juxtaposed "at-times-jarring post-punk guitar parts with pretty, melodic, even catchy choruses".[3] William Kennedy of The Portland Mercury called it "bracing and vital ’90s-era guitar rock with elements of pop punk and enough messy, open-chord Sonic Youth-style tunings".[4]
