Backstory:
Noisy Commander is a four-piece band that was formed in the city of noise itself, New York, in 2012. Childhood friends and band members Tony “Rooster” Russo (lead vocals and guitar), Dennis “Buzz” Foster (drums), Marvin “Static” Jones (bass), and Benny “Echo” Parker (lead guitar) shared a common passion for music and a desire to break free from the constraints of the corporate world. The band’s name, Noisy Commander, was born out of their shared defiance against the silence of conformity and a symbolic representation of their command over the chaos and noise in the world of music.
The band began by playing in local bars, clubs, and underground music festivals. Their energetic performances, coupled with Rooster’s raw, raspy vocals, and their unique blend of sounds soon began to attract a significant following. In 2013, they released their debut album ‘Riot of Sound’, which was a major success, catapulting them to national fame. The rest, as they say, is history.
Genre:
Noisy Commander plays a unique blend of Alternative Rock and Punk with undertones of Grunge.
Song Title:
“Walls of Freedom”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Strolling down the [Em] alley with a [F] song in my heart
[G] Paint drenched [C] hands, ready to [Em] play my part
[Dm] Walls of the city, [G] canvas of my dream
[C] I’m gonna paint ’em [Em] with colors [F] unseen
(Chorus)
[G] Walls of freedom, [C] tell my story
[Em] Break the silence, [F] showcase my glory
[Dm] Let the echoes [G] reveal my name
[C] On these walls of [Em] freedom, [F] I stake my claim
(Verse 2)
[C] Underneath the [Em] moonlight, [F] with my rebel cry
[G] I’m painting [C] my resistance [Em] up high
[Dm] Every stroke, every [G] line,
[C] Is a part of [Em] me, it’s [F] my design
(Chorus)
[G] Walls of freedom, [C] tell my story
[Em] Shout my rebellion, [F] in all its glory
[Dm] Let the world [G] hear my fame
[C] On these walls of [Em] freedom, [F] I stake my claim
Outro:
[C] I’m the Noisy [Em] Commander, [F] hear my roar
[G] I’ll keep painting [C] till there’s [Em] no wall [F] anymore…
