Speaking of the album, vocalist Cam Humphrey says: “To live in a different way is the story of a kid from Bolton trying to understand the world he lives in. It’s 11 tracks full of love, heartache and dream-soaked melody, I believe we’ve created something special. To be able to have a physical release of this record, pictured by the GOAT Carl Battams and put together by the legend GARJK is a true blessing. The fact we get the pleasure of releasing it on Century Media is such a trip and 16-year-old me wouldn’t believe the chances he’s now getting. Big up Century Media and all the team over there, none of this would’ve been possible without you”.

LOVE IS NOISE have released the anthemic title track from the album. “’To Live in a Different Way’ is the song that made me realise this album has the potential to be something solid.” says Cam. “Recording the demo version of this track made me cry with happy tears, it brought out so much emotion within me. This was also when I realised ‘yeah this singing thing really is for me”.

This song is for anyone who needs a release, a sound that will transport you to a better place. The line “Visions of you, let me escape this barren world” speaks wonders to how we’re all feeling living in today’s climate. I’m blessed to have people to escape this world with.

You can also catch the band live in London at their record release show “A Night In The Capital” which will take place at The Lower Third on February 22^nd.

LOVE IS NOISE is an exercise in empathy, both lyrically and musically. The band’s Century Media debut, To live in a different way, straddles the roughshod riffing and volume of their DIY origins while embracing shoegaze-facing melodiousness, hints of Brit-pop, and a beating (and bleeding) heart erupting from Cam Humphrey’s plaintive vocals. Co-produced by the band with engineer Kel Pinchin and mixed by John Markson (Drug Church, Drain, The Story So Far), To live in a different way is a startling debut album. From the opening track, “Devotion,” where Humphrey’s voice invokes passion and positivity, to the second track, “Soft Glow,” the album’s first single where he croons, “You are the one that shines on me,” before launching into a throat-shredding exaltation of emotion amidst a crushing battery of slashing guitars and battering drums, it’s clear from the onset that LOVE IS NOISE’s heartbeat is a thunderous one.

“We made a conscious decision to make the record feel like a live band, mistakes included!” says Cam. “In an era where perfection is heavily favoured, we wanted to do the complete opposite and dive head first into creating something our idols would’ve set out to create.”

Love Is Noise began its journey in 2021 as a collaboration between Humphrey and former guitarist Tom Mellon (who recently left the band to explore other musical endeavours) balancing the ethereal and intense. While sonic signposts include modern-day shoegaze as well as the likes of Glassjaw and Deftones, the band’s 2022 EP, Euphoria, Where Were You? (released on FEVER 333 frontman Jason Aalon Butler’s 333 WRECKORDS CREW) pointed towards a soul-crushing sonic heartache all their own. A string of singles led to the band inking with Century Media and beginning work on their debut album. Love Is Noise released the first taste of new music with the acclaimed singles “Soft Glow” and “Jawbreaker” which appeared on numerous playlists across the streaming platforms and were featured on BBC Radio One (Daniel P Carter, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton all showing their support).
