History Music / NoDevotion

No Devotion is an AlternativeRock {{Supergroup}} formed in 2014 by Geoff Rickly, formerly of [[Music/{{Thursday}} Thursday]], and five of the six former members of Music/{{Lostprophets}} (guitarists Lee Gaze and Mike Lewis, bassist Stuart Richardson, keyboardist Jamie Oliver and drummer Luke Johnson). This later went down to four after Johnson left the band for personal reasons. After the catastrophic end of Lostprophets due to their singer's imprisonment for disturbing acts against children, the other members came together under a new name and recruited Rickly as their new singer. The band has released two singles, "Stay" [[note]]The band took the unusual step of releasing a B-side, "Eyeshadow," at the same time as the main single, and in fact played them one after another during their radio debut.[[/note]] and "10,000 Summers" in 2014, (the former reaching #47 in the UK) and their acclaimed debut album ''Permanence'' in 2015, and Rickly has hinted on Twitter that a sophomore album may be in the works.

After a hiatus due to Thursday's reunion tour the band started recording a new album in 2019, revealing that Jamie had decided to leave in the interim and that Mike was absent from the sessions but still considered a member.

In 2022, the band signed a deal with Velocity Records and reissued their debut album on the label. They also announced that their second album would be coming later that year and that the band would resume touring. It was also implied that Mike Lewis had permanently left the band as only Geoff, Stuart and Lee were listed as full-time members. Gaze stated shortly afterwards on his personal social media that a third album was already in the works.

After a several year hiatus due to Thursday's reunion tour, the band started recording a new album in 2019, revealing that Jamie had decided to leave in the interim, and Mike was absent from the sessions but still considered a member, with Geoff and Lee respectively covering their roles in the studio.

* {{Supergroup}}: As mentioned above, the band was formed by instrumentalists from Lostprophets and vocalist from Thursday.
* ThatManIsDead: They refuse to play any of the Lostprophets' songs, despite occasional urging. Guitarist Lee Gaze has spoken about his experiences with diehard Lostprophets fans in the interim of the two bands.

* FriendlyFandoms: Signs point to them being friendly with [[Music/MyChemicalRomance Gerard Way]]'s fanbase, since No Devotion have opened for him and got a positive response from Way's fans.

* OldShame: The instrumentalists have disowned the Lostprophets name.

* NewWaveMusic[=/=]PostPunk: Both of these genres strongly influence No Devotion's sound.
* LighterAndSofter: No Devotion's atmospheric style is far lighter than the PostHardcore of Thursday or the AlternativeMetal of the Lostprophets.

* [[ThatManIsDead That Band Is Dead]]: They refuse to play any of the Lostprophets' songs, despite occasional urging. Guitarist Lee Gaze has spoken about his experiences with diehard Lostprophets fans in the interim of the two bands.
