Halfnoise have shared a video for their new single, Flowerss.
The track shares its title with their new EP, which is due out on May 4 via Congrats. It follows up 'The Velvet Face' EP, which came out last year.
Halfnoise originally started off as the solo project of Paramore drummer Zac Farro, but over the years has evolved into a full band. They have a handful of dates in the diary for later this month, following which they will appear on Paramore's PARAHOY! cruise in April and head out on a US tour in May. Tickets for the latter go on sale on March 9.
Speaking about the Flowerss video, directed by Alex Kranzusch said:
"I really vibed with this song walking around Brooklyn in the winter. There is so much texture in this track, it made me think of the depth of light and color that differs spring and winter. That texture has an intangible quality that I feel is represented in Zac's music. I experimented with different mediums that I felt reflected the spontaneous energy felt letting 'Flowerss' fill my brain for the past month or so. I used both watercolor and pastels to animate some of the layers that paired with the guitar leads, and digital brushes to animate more of the chugging guitars and heavier drums. I was inspired by late 70s, American animators like Suzan Pitt. I really love her willingness to experiment with different mediums to create and contribute to her narrative in the short film 'Asparagus'. It was this sensibility that reminded me of Zac's approach to creating his art."
