White Noise is the debut studio album by American rock band PVRIS. PVRIS formed as a five-piece metalcore band in Lowell, Massachusetts in 2012. Following the band becoming a four-piece of vocalist/guitarist Lyndsey Gunnulfsen, guitarist Alex Babinski, bassist Brian MacDonald and drummer Brad Griffin, the group's sound changed. Bringing pop and electronic elements into their music, the band released a self-titled EP. After winning a contest, the band played a week on Warped Tour; following this, Griffin left the band. The group signed with Rise and Velocity in June 2014. White Noise was recorded with producer Blake Harnage. Harnage would help co-write several songs on the album with Gunnulfsen; Sierra Kusterbeck helped co-write a few songs with Harnage and Gunnulfsen.
"St. Patrick" was released as a single in June 2014. In September, a music video was released for "My House". A month later, the title track was made available for streaming. White Noise was released in November through Rise and Velocity. Receiving positive reviews, the album charted in the top 100 in the U.S., and in the top 200 in the UK. It also charted in the top 20 on several Billboard charts. "My House", "St. Patrick" and "Fire" all charted in the top 20 of the Independent Singles Breakers Chart in the UK. The album ranked on several publications' end-of-the-year lists. In March 2015, a music video was released for the title track. Outside of a supporting tour in the UK, the band announced a couple of headlining dates that sold out within seconds. In early July, a music video was released for "Holy", and later that month, a music video was released for "Fire".
PVRIS formed in Lowell, Massachusetts in late 2012 under the name Operation Guillotine. They were originally a metalcore band, consisting of five members, one of which did screaming vocals. Their line-up soon changed to vocalist/guitarist Lyndsey Gunnulfsen, guitarist Alex Babinski, bassist Brian MacDonald and drummer Brad Griffin. Babinski had previously been in I Am the Fallen. When the band went into the studio their sound changed drastically, incorporating pop and electronic elements into their music. Gunnulfsen claimed this incorporation was done subconsciously. In March 2013 the band released a self-titled EP. Later that year, the band played a week on Ernie Ball's Battle of the Bands stage at Warped Tour after winning a contest. Towards the end of summer, Griffin left the band. The band went on The Rise Up Tour supporting A Skylit Drive in September and October.
