With roots dating back to the early days of the industrial rock scene, the USA-based band 16Volt also crossed over into related genres as soon as group founder Eric Powell signed his first record deal in 1991 while still in his teens.

The brand new single, "White Noise", is the first revealed track from 16Volt's long-awaited album, More Of Less, due on 25 July via Metropolis Records. More Of Less is the band's first full-length since 2017, when Powell put 16Volt on a hiatus that lasted seven years.

"'White Noise' is a song about feeling unheard, when your voice gets drowned out and it seems like you can't get a word in or no-one is listening to you", he explains. "To others, you become just white noise, that static sound of nothingness."

The single follows just two weeks after a first-ever (and already sold out) vinyl pressing of Wisdom, the group's 1993 debut album.

Powell's reactivation of 16Volt in 2024 was marked with the release of Negative On Arrivals, which combined songs from the group's previous two records in 2016 and 2017. Link
