Listen to NOISY’s uplifting new single, All Of U
NOISY have unveiled “special” new single All Of U, which they say has already become the band’s “trademark song”.
- Words:
- Emily Carter
English alt. trio NOISY have officially released an uplifting new single, All Of U, which they describe as the ultimate introduction to the band – as well as being their first-ever love song.
“We were experimenting with a lot of different sounds at the time, trying to find our feet and this song really fell out of the sky,” they reveal of writing it a good while ago. “We’ve waited a long time for the right moment to release it. It felt big but also different to everything we were writing at the time so we kind of put it aside, but as soon as we started playing shows and we saw the reaction from people, we knew it was special and an instant banger. We play it last in the set because the big climax at the end just feels like such a moment every time. It’s the perfect way for people to leave a NOISY show.”
Of the single’s meaning, they continue that: “NOISY has always been about friendship and those moments that seem throwaway, but really we live for them. One silly thing that a mate does in the pub can make you laugh all night, escaping the real world week days, that kind of thing. NOISY will fuck you up on a Friday night but also call you on Saturday morning to check you’re alright.
“All Of U encapsulates all of that and we would refer to it as our trademark song. If you hadn’t heard NOISY before and wanted to understand it in one tune, it would be All Of U. It’s a song for everyone. NOISY needs all of you. And hopefully this song is big enough to make that happen.”
Check out All Of U now.
