In the decade since their last studio album, long running Pacific Northwest street punk resolutes NOi!SE have been prolific, releasing enough singles, EPs, compilation appearances, and more to fill the On and On compilation. Nevertheless, the band’s many international fans have continued to clamor for an all-new full length, and now the band have delivers just that in the form of Fate of the Union which is out today via streaming platforms and on vinyl through Pirates Press Records and CoreTex Records. The album delivers thought-provoking reflections on the personal, the political, and most often, the cross section of both, where people have to live, set to some of the band’s best music to date. The current iteration of NOi!SE sounds vital, energized, and ready to inspire the fight for change, in the world at large and in people’s hearts & minds.

For the band’s long awaited third LP, NOi!SE has a new lineup that brings a revitalized energy to the studio proceedings. Brand new to the band are the rhythm section of bassist Aaron Williams and drummer Mike Parker. Longtime primary singer/songwriter Matt Henson is of course on lead vocals with the dual guitar attack of Justin Miller & Kenny Dirkes returning to the fold. The result is ten songs of the kind of hard-hitting but thoughtful punk rock that has made the band a favorite with audiences worldwide. If NOi!SE‘s goals can be put simply, they include both energizing listeners with the music, and encouraging putting that energy into thought, discussion, and action via the lyrics.
