“Noir” offers a further glimpse of what people can expect of the band’s newest record, being one of the heaviest songs Port Noir have ever released while keeping it true to their dark atmospheric nature and raw emotionality.
The band comments on the new single:
"‘Noir taps into the dark and raw energy that signifies the vibe of the new album. We wanted to create something that relentlessly keeps building, like an overwhelming void of light that won’t give in. It’s a lot heavier than anything we’ve released to date, yet there is a sense of sentimentality and solace that guides you through the storm that is “Noir”.
Lyrically it takes you through a seemingly endless night that bends you to its will. Where bliss and despair make you grasp at anything to get through."
“Noir” is the third single the band has released from their upcoming record and follows on “Complicated” and “Redshift”. The record, which will be released May 15th, 2026 will be their 5th full length record.
