The Noise, The Rats

The Noise takes its musical influences from the over crowded and extremely loud streets of New York City. Although one hears influences of all the members’ past bands, this self tittled release carves a world of original, provocative and multicultural music best described as Post Punk, Noise, and cut throat Hard Rock. The Noise conjures up memories of many of their for fathers, The Ramones The MC5,The Clash or Iggy Pop and Suicide. The record includes contributions by the great Billy Ficca ( Television ) and Eric Miles Levy ( Orgy, Lit ). Art creations and branding by KIKi MILES and the world renowned, NYC street artist De La Vega. Cover Design by Brian Goss.
