noid pull and push artful emotions on "reverse" (Official Video)

 

"silent darkness, notice a sign to steal it up..."

Formed in the late 2000's in Kanazawa- Japan, noid's artful divergent sound has inspired and shape shifted the thinking of those who have had the pleasure of hearing their music. Albums and festivals followed and since the release of their 2017 pivotal 3rd album "Hubble" they have released a series of singles. There latest "reverse" (2021) highlights their propensity to build musical universes that feel organically wrought on acoustic guitar and piano as well as electric instrumentation. noid propels emotional journeys that breathe, that swell, that circle with ambient noises and maelstroms of sound that come to reflective conclusions. 

Silent darkness

Notice a sign to steal it up

The bird on the lake flies away

Little by little

Posing as nature

This world begins to reverse...

The Official Video for "reverse", as directed by Takayuki Kojima, spirals into a pastiche of surreal images floating among the clouds, staring into inner eyes, cradled in the dreams and visions of childhood and beyond. 

noid is eiji (music, lyrics, vocal, chorus, guitar, keyboard, clap, demo), ogi (guitar), suzuki (bass),  yukki (keyboard) and sanchan (drums).
