Tacoma-based streetpunk mainstays NOI!SE, who ranked among the most prominent and best acts of the 2010s, have finally ended the long wait for a new full-length studio album. Their third LP, titled Fate of the Union, is being released under Pirates Press Records and promises a return in top-tier form.
While the band hasn’t been entirely idle over the past decade—treating fans to a steady stream of singles, EPs, and splits later summarized in the On and On collection—it has been a long time since their last proper full-length. The album features 10 tracks, including the standout singles „Vast Contrast“ and „You Versus You,“ which hit hard from the very first listen. The record also includes a newly recorded version of their cult anthem „Idle Action.“ The entire album carries the spirit of melodic streetpunk, characterized by driving riffs, thoughtful lyrics, and a clear stance on current global events.
Frontman Matt Henson commented on the release:
„Holding this record in my hands is an incredible feeling. It represents the culmination of so much energy, effort and emotion and captures every facet of who/ what we are as a band. Almost everything about it is a departure from how we’ve done things in the past, except for our intention to provide an honest perspective of some difficult things happening in the world around us.“
