''No One'' is the only studio album by Chicago nu metal band of the same name. It was released on August 14, 2001 via Immortal Records and produced by Johnny K who also worked with Chicago natives Disturbed and Soil. Neither the band nor their debut release gained any widespread commercial attention, despite the album being classified under the once-popular nu metal genre. Two singles from ''No One'' were released in "Chemical" and "Down on Me" and received moderate radio play for a short time. ==Background and recording== After forming the group, No One began writing and played their first show on August 5, 2000 at Champ’s. Having taken place between two Chicago dates for Ozzfest, the show gained the attention of Disturbed, Soulfly, and The Deadlights. No One only played two more weeks of concerts before joining Johnny K to record a 3-track demo. This resulted the recording of "Chemical," "It’s Real," and "My Release." Shortly after, No One received a phone call notifying them that a Californian manager had been shopping the demo around without their consent. They were approached by Immortal Records and, after reviewing other offers, chose the aforementioned label due to their reputation for breaking in heavy metal bands, their promotional tactics, and their long-term approach in never having dropped any bands. No One entered the studio in December 2000 without letting Immortal know that not enough songs had been written for an album. "Shedding", "Down on Me", and "Inside Out" were then written in the studio. After finishing up recording, No One resumed touring on April 5, 2001.〔Henhoeffer, Bill (No One ) Pop Entertainment (August 14, 2001).

It definitely took a long time to write it and a lot of hard work."〔Hereford, Patrick (No One ) ''The Tech'' Volume 121, Issue 37 (August 28, 2001).
