about
One muggy summer night, I was hiking by the cliffs. I heard the vague sound of music coming from a parked car next to me. I couldn’t really make it out but I thought I could make out a piano and a beat. As I walked away, I started getting a melody in my mind. “Ready, are you ready? Ready?” And I liked it so much I started singing it into my phone as I walked along. I knew I looked weird but the song was too good to care.
And that little g̶i̶r̶l̶ song grew up to be Waves of Gold
This is the song that really sets the tone of the Powerlines EP for me. It’s the most Powerlines of the songs, the most retro, the most faded VHS, the most sunset. The most of all the things that makes this EP what it is. Hope you like it :)
lyrics
Oh I know it’s gone forever, but I can’t help but wonder
Can’t help but wondering
Filth dissolved in rain, like the clouds crashed and we're OK
You don't die alone on the road. Too many monsters to take your soul
You don't die alone on the road. Just gonna sell everything you know
Oh I know it’s gone forever, but I can’t help but wonder
Can’t help the wondering
Salts like cyanide washing away in the tide
Keep this one in my pocket to remind me of younger days
when the smoke we saw was dragons evolving in their caves
into you and your little sister all alone now in the snow
have we become the monsters when we drive away all alone?
You don't die alone on the road

I've always loved Nonotices work, this is a real powerful release, full of atmosphere, tension, weight and calm ambience. Impossible to pick favourite track. PadraigC
Each piece has its own color to symbolize Japanese folklore creatures that sound like playing oriental instrument while having fun in their night parade. Very inspiring! Funs
Get lost in this Brooklyn-born dreamy pop set that is haunting, enchanting, and melancholic in all the right proportions. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 9, 2013
