REVIEW: Sorority Noise – ‘Joy, Departed’
June 30th, 2015 John Bazley Artist: Sorority Noise Album: Joy, Departed Genre: Emo, Garage Rock Label: Topshelf Records Joy, Departed doesn’t sound like a Sorority Noise record, and that’s a good thing. The band’s debut record–the aptly titled Forgettable–is a fun listen with little substance beyond a few catchy choruses and well-written one-liner lyrics. Where Forgettable serves as the polar […]

June 15th, 2015 John Bazley Sorority Noise have finally unveiled their fantastic, highly-anticipated sophomore record, Joy, Departed. You can stream the record below, courtesy of Noisey.

Sorority Noise Just Released One Of The Year’s Best Songs In “Using”
June 3rd, 2015 John Bazley I listen to a lot of music. I figure that I check out at least two new records every week. I like a lot of what I listen to, but every year or so, I hear a song that cuts through the rest, makes my jaw hit the floor, and immediately shines forward as a song that […]

The New Sorority Noise Album Will Probably Change Our Lives
May 26th, 2015 James Shotwell Anyone who is connected to the alternative and indie rock worlds with even the faintest of interest no doubt failed to make it out of 2014 without hearing The Hotelier‘s phenomenal album, Home Like NoPlace Is There. And that’s perfectly fine. It’s great, in fact. That album is incredible and it deserves to be heard […]

Sorority Noise Announce New Record ‘Joy, Departed’
May 7th, 2015 John Bazley Sorority Noise, the Connecticut indie-punk band featuring Old Gray’s Cameron Boucher, have built up a pretty ridiculous amount of stream from their Broken World Media debut, Forgettable. The band’s first record is full of catchy punk songs, similar to Modern Baseball and The Front Bottoms, with a poorly-produced charm that sets them apart from their peers. After […]
