"Maroulis has a voice and vision that sits somewhere between post-punk anthems and dark synth bangers...a beat-drive darkness that fans of Clan of Xymox, WINGTIPS, and early iterations of The Human League will find of particular interest." ~Blitzed Magazine

"NOIR have dabbled in a few sounds across their releases, but sleek electro seems to suit Athan Maroulis’ rich vocals best, and new single "Fallen" reinforces my view." ~amodelofcontrol.com

"A sensuous dance anthem." ~post-punk.com

“Fallen” is a great song and the right title track for an EP. It’s a well-crafted piece of electronics empowered by guitar play and the unique singing of Athan Maroulis." ~side-line.com

"A very nice slice of North American Darkwave." ~idieyoudie.com

"A true return to his Wave-roots with NOIR." ~Sonic Seducer

After releasing "A Pleasure" in late 2019, NØIR began work on the "Fallen" EP, which all but ceased during the pandemic. Work resumed in '22, when "Fallen" was put on hold due to the unexpected passing of Metropolis founder Dave Heckman ("Fallen" is dedicated to him). Eventually, "Fallen" was completed with remixes by SILVER WALKS and PARADOX OBSCUR (who also created a wondrous video for their remix), a sensual female take by Kai Irina Hahn as well as the new song "Death is Easy," about the war torn Middle East along with a cello drenched take on THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS "Love My Way." With recent performances at festivals like The Unconvention and Dark Force Fest, along with NØIR's Athan Maroulis completing background work on the final season of the TV show The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, we present "Fallen" for your approval.
