White Noise by PVRIS

White Noise is the debut ten track album from American trio, PVRIS. PVRIS being pronounced Paris, obviously... Confusion of pronunciation aside, this full-length debut from a band just two years young is pretty damn good. It's not your typical rock album in that it's foundations are made of synths and electronics but it does still have something innately rock about it. Whether it's the darkness that consumes it or the aggression in the vocals, it holds its own as a piece of rock music which will once again prove that there is more to rock than big riffs.

Although Lindsey, Alex and Brian have been releasing music, acoustically and through EPs, since early 2012, album White Noise is what's really going to get them noticed. It is full of huge songs which one by one embed themselves in your brain and make you want to mosh and dance and shout. Even it's understated tracks make you want to move, one such track being Eyelids, which whispers its way into your mind. It has an eerie vibe, similar to the likes of The Neighbourhood; it has goosebump potential. However, the album is much better felt when listening to St. Patrick, My House, Mirrors, Let Me In. They're the songs that boast what this band are about: noise and urgency. There hasn't been a sound this original in the rock scene for a long time and not only are PVRIS a leading light for the acceptance of alternative sounds but they're another example of why women belong in this industry.
