No Room is an album by the Boulder, Colorado, band the Samples, released in 1992.[1][2] Prior to recording the album, the band left Arista Records to regain control of their musical direction.[3]

The Samples supported the album with a North American tour; they also played the 1993 H.O.R.D.E. festival.[4][5] They wrote and tested the songs while touring their previous album.[6] No Room sold almost 80,000 copies in its first nine months of release; it had topped more than 150,000 copies by 1998.[7][8]

Critical reception

Script error: No such module "Music ratings".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". The Chicago Tribune noted the "crystalline production, bubbling keyboard arrangements, snaky guitar lines and a tight, syncopated rhythm section."[9] The Daily Breeze deemed the album "rock with a point—and with touches of jazz fusion, ska, reggae and even a country twang."[10]

Mentioning the Samples' return to an independent label, the Tulsa World opined that "the band's loyalty to its formative ideas gives its music a consistent, yet broad-based, signature."[11] Trouser Press wrote: "'When It's Raining' is a standout, a shimmering melody surfing on a wiggly groove, finally capturing in the studio some of what the Samples transmit onstage."[12]
