Will ArguetaNoCo, or No Compromise, is an alternative rock band from Silver Spring, Maryland.
NoCo was rated as one of DC's "Hottest 5 Bands" by Metromix and W-USA 9 in 2010.[2]
"So Hot (Water Level's Rising)" from Pull the Plug peaked at the #1 spot on the Broadjam hard rock charts in March and April 2007.[3]

History
NoCo has released five albums since they formed in March 2001.[4]
The band's 2011 release, "Level Up," was rated a 10/10 by the Away Team's Craig "Bam-Bam" Stegall.[5]
Perhaps foreshadowing real events in their music video for the song Sugarcoated[6] , drummer Will Argueta vanished from the band's web copy. It appears as if Argueta was replaced by former drummer William Bowen--although the site now shows "Phantom Drummer" in the band lineup.[7] It is not clear if Bowen rejoined the band or if this is a temporary reunion.
