It's always great to see a drummer come out and sing, like Dave Grohl after Nirvana. It's an interesting role shift - from being in the back to being the frontman.
i am extremely impressed by Zac's songwriting here and in Hurricane love.. You can see the hole that has been left in Paramore for sure. I never really gave Zac or Josh the credit they deserved when they were in Paramore but it is obviously they are both extremely talented and perhaps they needed their own band/s as the focus, probably by the label, increasingly came all about Hayley, even to her admittance and open annoyance.
Reversed the steps I took when I was younger They fall to the ground I waited so long, I finally learned But half of me is half of you I ran away so you would know In half of me is half of you I wanna know where to go You're everything I left behind You're everything that I can't find It's a mountain, oh, mountain high It's a mountain, oh, mountain high It's the cold wind you saw rush in It's the bad mood you felt when you saw me alone But half of me is half of you I ran away so you would know In half of me is half of you I wondered why I let you go You're everything I left behind You're everything that I can't find It's a mountain, oh, mountain high It's a mountain, oh, mountain high
I must say, I am extremely surprised at how good Zac's music is. He knows how to get his voice to compliment the (amazing) lyrics and the music, so it all just blends together. Josh and Zac should do a project together! That would be so amazing!
this ep was absolutely life changing for me. thank you zac 6 years later and these songs still take me to that same place as when i first listened. anyone else here in 2020?
I cant believe Hayley Williams congradulated Zac Farro for this on Twitter? and yet she shared this video to everyone who follows her? i just love how everyone forgets about the past and just move on.
Paramore actually thanked Zac Farro in the linear notes of their latest album. I would assume he helped Taylor with the drums and chose not to be credited, they are still really good friends. I think it was Josh who had more of an issue. I think Zac left at the same time just to make it easier, only speculation of course
I really missed Paramore and I wanted Zac and Josh (and then Jeremy) to come back in the band, but then I listened to this music, and the first thing I thought was "God, he's incredible he has to do a solo career". This song is amazing like everything you do keep doing music like that ! ;)
It's pleasing to see Zac producing great music after leaving Paramore. I was always certain Zac was among the most talented in the band adding real depth to the bands sound. His new work has shown me even more versatility than I possibly could have given him credit for in the past. I'm not sure how far this new musical direction will take him, but in for one will keep my eyes (or ears) open!
I'm beyond words .... don't want to be negative towards Paramore, because I still love and respect them, but leaving may have been the best decision Zac has made. All this astoundingly amazing talent was just sitting behind the shadows before. This is such an awesome video and song. Not trying to be dramatic, but his voice touched my soul. Excited for more!!!!
I think you have a point there and I agree with you on the fact that if he did remain in Paramore he would have hardly received the opportunity to show his talent as a songwriter cause the songwriters were mainly Josh and Hayley. In this way Taylor was given this opportunity too cause he now can show his talent and I think with Josh still in the band he could have shown only a bit of it. (sorry for bad english).
I'm so proud of you, Zac. I was afraid when you left Paramore because you're such a talented artist and I had panic that you wouldn't do music anymore, but I was wrong. This is epic. Hope you share more HalfNoise music with us, we can't wait! :)
Those first drum beats just knock me off. Haven't heard anything from you for years and here I am, all in love with your music again! Great job Zac, can't wait to hear more from you!
Farros, once you got me,always will be. Even if old loved paramore is dead, even if your sound is different, even if you stand alone now, you're good musicians with great taste and new targets on your way, that's awesome! Zac, good job, love your voice. Good luck!
I miss the Farro brothers in the Paramore band. It was such a heartbreaking part when they left the band but seeing this video made me think that I should also be happy knowing that they can do music on their own, unlocking their potential as a separate musicians. He is still my favorite drummer. Kudos to you Zac Farro and your brother! =)
Oh and people please stop the stupid high school bullshit of having to make snotty comments about Paramore. The past is in the past, they're all doing what they love, and doing a damn kick ass job of it. Proud of Paramore and HalfNoise. Can't wait to hear all the new music to come from both groups. Congrats! edited 2 yrs later to say glad Zac is back with Paramore and still making great music with HalfNoise 😎
Is it only me that thinks this aong talks about Paramore? When I read the lyrics just made me think about him talking to Paramore. You're everything I left behind You're everything that I can't find It's a mountain in the hole, mountain in our hearts It's a mountain in the hole, mountain in our hearts But half of me is half of you I runaway so you would know And half of me is half of you I wanna know where to go This is sad I wanna hug Zac now. 😢
This is really indie rock, I love it! His voice is really soothing and so fitting. People, please keep your Paramore hatred out of the subject because you sound like a whiny twelve year old. Those people are probably older than me and like to talk crud about successful people, that's embarrassing.
From a fellow drummer-turned-multi-instrumentalist, you're killing it, Zac! Never stop your musical journey and always remain humble! You're alright, kid!
Uau, não escutava essa música há uns 3 ou mais anos.. era fã de Paramore desde meados de 2007. Lembro que quando ele lançou esse projeto foi bem tocante pra mim, muito especial. Saudades daqueles tempos.
I really enjoyed this - used to listen to Paramore a lot back in the day, even went to see you live in Dublin! Love what you're doing now, excuse me while I go check out your other stuff! :)
Brilliant song that paints such a wonderful soundscape. Quirky 3/4 meter played in an unusual manner. Very reminiscent of what was termed "New Age" music back in the 80s 7 90s.
Comparing Half Noise to Paramore is like comparing Foster The People to Suicide Silence - the two bands are in completely different genres and sound nothing alike. With that being said, it's good to see Zac writing his own music and doing what he loves. Paramore is his past, that's where it should be left.
This totally caught me off guard!! I've always loved Zac's drumming, but had no idea he could sing, or write music like this!! Love it, & definitely looking forward to the rest of the album.
Zac is still friends with all of them, Hayley actually congratulated him on twitter, and they also thanked him in the linear notes of Paramores latest album :)
I think the same, it's even stupid to me how some people here says that Halfnoise, that it's a starter band, it's better than Paramore, that it has a long time in music industry... But meh, let them kill themselves, I liked the song and I send the best of my luck the him and his band, we hope he get as high as Paramore.
This song is great. I love that zach is making music again. I wish people would stop comparing this to paramore. Half noise and paramore are two completely different styles/genres of music. They are both great bands but I dont think they should be compared to one another just because zach was in paramore and is now in half noise. They are both great bands that make great music cant we just focus and agree on that on that instead of arguing which is better?
i just found out today this album isnt available on spotify in my ccountry anymore ): anyone experiencing the same thing? First it was his 2012 EP, now it's Volcano Crowe ): Zac please put these two up again those two albums has helped me go through difficult times in my life
Thank you man, for letting us discover your amazing voice. It is a surprise, and it's really nice to hear and read this after a long day. Made me smile. :)
These comments are really pissing me off. When you scroll through all you see is "Paramore is shit now" and "The brothers were the light of the band" Half of these comments sound like you haven't given them the time of day since they broke off from the band. Hayley approves of this, there obviously aren't any hard feelings towards them, so you can all stop picking sides. Bands are subjective, but tearing them down for the sake of another band is bullshit. Please grow up and realize that you can be loyal to something while being completely in support of another thing.
Absolutely agree with this. I still love paramore and their Self-titled album and, towards on all that people say, I still love Josh and Zac. I accepted the fact that their lives are different now and that Zac and Josh still want to make music, even without hayley, Jeremy and Taylor. Personally I really like both the songs (mountains and colorrush) and I think that in the end, the most important thing is that they're both happy now, farro bros and paramore.
Amazing sound and feel to the song, looking forward to hearing what else is on the album! I knew Zac was a talented drummer but had no idea he was such a talented writer and singer too! Mind blown Brilliant song!
Who knew zac could sing?!? His voice is amazing.
His voice is EVERYTHING.
Like if you’re surviving the 20/20 “apocalypse” now. XD
I didn't know he could sing...This is great Zac :)
***** well he is doing an album where he is going to be singing
Paula Bragan Totally! It would sound a lot better haha ***** I like Zac better :) Josh always seemed angry lol
***** I don't care about the screamo haha
paramoreguate He can play guitar too
This is incredible.
It's always great to see a drummer come out and sing, like Dave Grohl after Nirvana. It's an interesting role shift - from being in the back to being the frontman.
They always surprise us with their voices.
My favorite musicians have been drummers
As a drummer that's about to start writing and producing his own music, this is super inspiring. This songs rocks and you're the man
i am extremely impressed by Zac's songwriting here and in Hurricane love.. You can see the hole that has been left in Paramore for sure. I never really gave Zac or Josh the credit they deserved when they were in Paramore but it is obviously they are both extremely talented and perhaps they needed their own band/s as the focus, probably by the label, increasingly came all about Hayley, even to her admittance and open annoyance.
exactly. Hopefully They can all work together again one.
Soooooo good Zac!!! Can't wait for the album!!
Si el se quiso ir, que no vuelva
Paramore siguio adelante sin tenerlo a el y a su talento
Quien dejo que el quiso regresar a paramore? Nadie! No te inventas chismes!
Best solo project, truly - still love listening, to this day!
Reversed the steps I took when I was younger
They fall to the ground
I waited so long, I finally learned
But half of me is half of you
I ran away so you would know
In half of me is half of you
I wanna know where to go
You're everything I left behind
You're everything that I can't find
It's a mountain, oh, mountain high
It's a mountain, oh, mountain high
It's the cold wind you saw rush in
It's the bad mood you felt when you saw me alone
But half of me is half of you
I ran away so you would know
In half of me is half of you
I wondered why I let you go
You're everything I left behind
You're everything that I can't find
It's a mountain, oh, mountain high
It's a mountain, oh, mountain high
10 years old already?! Thanks to the algo for bringing me back after probably 8-9 years.
Nobody else finds this song beautiful as hell ?
I must say, I am extremely surprised at how good Zac's music is. He knows how to get his voice to compliment the (amazing) lyrics and the music, so it all just blends together. Josh and Zac should do a project together! That would be so amazing!
th-cam.com/video/DYNXFOMk3S4/w-d-xo.html
this ep was absolutely life changing for me. thank you zac
6 years later and these songs still take me to that same place as when i first listened.
anyone else here in 2020?
Yaaass, I listened to Volcano Crowe recently, but damn, how cool this music is, I love this band
I was like "OH MY GOD" ! That's real music and real art !
I cant believe Hayley Williams congradulated Zac Farro for this on Twitter? and yet she shared this video to everyone who follows her? i just love how everyone forgets about the past and just move on.
Yeah cool
Asdep Potensi Darat Well, sometimes she is ;)
that's called being a grown up.
Why hold grudges? What's done it's done. grow up
Paramore actually thanked Zac Farro in the linear notes of their latest album. I would assume he helped Taylor with the drums and chose not to be credited, they are still really good friends. I think it was Josh who had more of an issue. I think Zac left at the same time just to make it easier, only speculation of course
I'm honestly really glad he's putting out music...and I think it's awesome that he and hayley are still somewhat friends
Please come to Brazil !!!!!
You're such an amazing artist Zac, love you so much
I really missed Paramore and I wanted Zac and Josh (and then Jeremy) to come back in the band, but then I listened to this music, and the first thing I thought was "God, he's incredible he has to do a solo career". This song is amazing like everything you do keep doing music like that ! ;)

Hello I'm from the future.. Zac comeback to Paramore 😁👍
I love this! I'm so proud of you Zac!
YES Zac's singing again!
Ugggh, that was amazing. I need to play it again.
This is amazing. Has a great Coldplay-vibe to it...Zac did a great job!
It's like Coldplay wrapped in M83 with a Radiohead reduction. Tasty.
I'm so proud of you, Zac. I was afraid when you left Paramore because you're such a talented artist and I had panic that you wouldn't do music anymore, but I was wrong. This is epic. Hope you share more HalfNoise music with us, we can't wait! :)

What a beautiful song. So happy I clicked on this as my 1 halfnoise song to listen to. He is very talented I hope he does well.
Wow, I'm chocked! This song is surprisingly really good. I definitely didn't expect this level.
Outstanding song
I miss the Farro brothers in the Paramore band. It was such a heartbreaking part when they left the band but seeing this video made me think that I should also be happy knowing that they can do music on their own, unlocking their potential as a separate musicians. He is still my favorite drummer. Kudos to you Zac Farro and your brother! =)
Leo Caesar Casurra did you know he is going to be on Paramore's new album(only agreed to play drums on the album) I'm happy they are getting along
HE'S BACK NOW
Zac thank you! Can't wait for the album!!
This is awesome! Who knew you had such an awesome voice Zach?! Looking forward to more of your guys music.
This is awesome. I mean the chorus is just so damn catchy. These guys are quickly rising to the top of my favorites.
Sounds awesome. Keep it up Zac :)
Wow... This is great.
Oh and people please stop the stupid high school bullshit of having to make snotty comments about Paramore. The past is in the past, they're all doing what they love, and doing a damn kick ass job of it. Proud of Paramore and HalfNoise. Can't wait to hear all the new music to come from both groups.

edited 2 yrs later to say glad Zac is back with Paramore and still making great music with HalfNoise 😎
Zac - Good job, man. I love it!
soooo good!
I always heard this song to relax me... I love the music and zac's voice
Is it only me that thinks this aong talks about Paramore? When I read the lyrics just made me think about him talking to Paramore.
You're everything I left behind
You're everything that I can't find
It's a mountain in the hole, mountain in our hearts
It's a mountain in the hole, mountain in our hearts
But half of me is half of you
I runaway so you would know
And half of me is half of you
I wanna know where to go
This is sad I wanna hug Zac now. 😢
Wow exactly. 😩😥 very sad to think 😞
Yeah maybe you are right, I just wrote what i felt, of course by being a Paramore fan thats how I feel.
Luana Machado
i was thinking the absolutely same holy moly :O
I am so glad that bands like this are emerging. Every song they record is a masterpiece, from what I've heard so far.
This was my gateway drug to twenty øne piløts
Ay yo love your content
Wow, lovely song and great video! The scenery is awesome as well.
Ahhh i'm melting ❤️ o really love this new project. Keep going :3
Congratulations in your new band Zac, you are a great musician, never give up in what you believe, you have my love and support :)
I really love you and how you play music, don't stop make music 💜👌👅
Love u Zac😜👌💗
Beautiful
im so happy to see Zac again! great music dude :) ♥
Miss you Zac. This is amazing, love it. You're never forgotten. Love you until the end. C'mon give us more of your music please! LOVE YOU!
This is pretty damn good, and so catchy 😬
This is so great.
This is really indie rock, I love it! His voice is really soothing and so fitting. People, please keep your Paramore hatred out of the subject because you sound like a whiny twelve year old. Those people are probably older than me and like to talk crud about successful people, that's embarrassing.
Zac this is awesome, congratulations.
This shocked me... in a good way. Not personally my cup of tea but damn, good work, Zac!
From a fellow drummer-turned-multi-instrumentalist, you're killing it, Zac! Never stop your musical journey and always remain humble! You're alright, kid!
Uau, não escutava essa música há uns 3 ou mais anos.. era fã de Paramore desde meados de 2007. Lembro que quando ele lançou esse projeto foi bem tocante pra mim, muito especial. Saudades daqueles tempos.
Such a stunning song Zac. I'm so excited to hear the album!
I really enjoyed this - used to listen to Paramore a lot back in the day, even went to see you live in Dublin!
Love what you're doing now, excuse me while I go check out your other stuff! :)
I send the video for my friends and all of them loved the new song!! Waiting the song in Spotify!
Oh, wow. I didn't know you could sing besides drums. Sounds great man!
Zach! :D You're the reason I started playing drums. You're beast dude. Well, I hope we get to hear more from you! You got a great voice!
I like Zac's style. I think he'll grow really fast. I hope to see Josh's stuff btw
Brilliant song that paints such a wonderful soundscape. Quirky 3/4 meter played in an unusual manner. Very reminiscent of what was termed "New Age" music back in the 80s 7 90s.

With that being said, it's good to see Zac writing his own music and doing what he loves. Paramore is his past, that's where it should be left.
Comparing Foster The People to anything is ridiculous, as ftp is the best band ever.
Trash .Boat you dont get her point and that is so fucking sad
Trash .Boat
and nobody asked for your opinion
MrKangIn
Nobody asked for yours either. Shut the fuck up.
Trash .Boat
you shut the fuck up you trash
i can't stop playing it, this is awesome!!
I LOVE THIS! PROUD OF YOU ZAC!!! :3
I want to buy this song. ASAP. You're style is so damn good. You know how music should sound-how it should be.
The Farro's are very talenyed
Exactly! 👌
This totally caught me off guard!! I've always loved Zac's drumming, but had no idea he could sing, or write music like this!! Love it, & definitely looking forward to the rest of the album.
Comparing Halfnoise to Paramore isn't going to do anything, I'm sure both of them have moved on already.
Zac is still friends with all of them, Hayley actually congratulated him on twitter, and they also thanked him in the linear notes of Paramores latest album :)
Yeah I know haha, I just said it because of people commenting saying that halfnoise is better than Paramore etc and It was getting on my nerves
I think the same, it's even stupid to me how some people here says that Halfnoise, that it's a starter band, it's better than Paramore, that it has a long time in music industry... But meh, let them kill themselves, I liked the song and I send the best of my luck the him and his band, we hope he get as high as Paramore.
MinYoongii and now he's back
and the table turns
I just discovered Halfnoise last week and I can't get enough. Amazing.
This song is great. I love that zach is making music again. I wish people would stop comparing this to paramore. Half noise and paramore are two completely different styles/genres of music. They are both great bands but I dont think they should be compared to one another just because zach was in paramore and is now in half noise.

Excellent!
i just found out today this album isnt available on spotify in my ccountry anymore ): anyone experiencing the same thing? First it was his 2012 EP, now it's Volcano Crowe ): Zac please put these two up again those two albums has helped me go through difficult times in my life
Yep, I'm so sad.
I'm glad you continue to make music. I remember downloading 'Kings' years ago. This song is great. Come to Detroit!
i glad he came back to Paramore, but this is still dope to listen to.
Thank you man, for letting us discover your amazing voice. It is a surprise, and it's really nice to hear and read this after a long day. Made me smile. :)
Would love to see Paramore give HalfNoise a shoutout at their next show
+LeSqweek Hayley did it during Parahoy.
+SonPan96 lead me to the vid please. :)
+SonPan96 parahoy hasn't even happened yet
kari0901 It was during the Q&A.
Nikhil Chauhan yes it did, the first one happened in 2014.
+SonPan96 Thank You!
Zac, tô tão feliz por você! Eu literalmente chorei ao ler a descrição do vídeo. Parabéns pela sua coragem, você me inspirou (mais uma vez).
La verdad me sorprendio mas que Josh farro.
Zac eres un gran musico y compositor. Me encanta este estilo!
love this so much, this is the music I've been waiting for, you have fulfilled it.
this is amazing, zac is so much more talented than i thought, so glad he's moving on from paramore and moving more towards his passion
This is BRILLIANT! The shows you played at Parachute are, to this day, the best sets i've ever seen a band play. Looking forward to the album.
I feel hipster listening to this, but... whatever.
This is...... really good.
These comments are really pissing me off.

Mind blown
Brilliant song!
HalfNoise >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> deep inside of the well >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Farro Band
This is so good! I just keep pushing the replay button! :)
still think that you should come back to paramore.... but i've to say that your solo work is good too...
adoro o ritmo!!!
isto n é meu, é do meu irmão..
He is back now :D
Whoooooaaaa!! This is you, this is heart; These sounds, keep them up.
Waaaay better than Josh's stuff. Better voice and better music.
Has to be the most brilliant thing to come out from any Current or Former Member.
que raro ver a este tipo cantando
No es raro... aprenda lo que realmente es música!
exactamente a eso me referí,es un flash.
este tipo se llama Zac Farro -_-
Fátima Glez jjajajaja
jajajajaja.. ¬-¬
Wow. I cant believe it. such a great composition zac :) 👍
Ah miss him
Awesome Zac!!!!! nothing else but perfect!!! can wait for whole record!!!!
Man you are good! Much better without Paramore... belive me your talent ist now alive! Prost!
