In support of their debut album Animal People, Human Noise have announced a tour through late 2021 into 2022. The long-awaited LP from the Sydney band will be released independently on October 21st.

Animal People will delight fans of indie-punk rock acts like Sonic Youth, RAT!hammock and The Strokes. Sonically, the ten track album moves between shades of blistering guitars, frenetic drums and impassioned vocals. It features singles ‘Bad Language’, ‘How Is It You Do That?’ ‘Colourful Shirt’ and new single ‘One Time’, all of which have seen strong support from Triple j and Unearthed, FBi, and 2SER.

“I definitely thought from the get go that it was going to be a break up album but it kinda became just as much about anxiety and friendship and self-critique. I set myself a one year writing deadline and made it with 10 songs. We ended up doing a little chopping and changing in the year that followed - I wanted to add a couple of songs and take a couple off. I’m really glad we spent the extra time getting it right. It’s the first body of work that I feel completely proud of and I can’t wait to share it.” Eddie Boyd, Human Noise

‘Animal People’ was predominantly produced by Ben Edwards in Lyttelton New Zealand, with two of the tracks produced by Blain Cunneen in Sydney. The album was mastered by Andrew Edgson.
