What Noise

What Noise is the second studio album by English synth-pop band Kissing the Pink, released in October 1984 by Magnet Records. It is the last Kissing the Pink album to feature founding members including saxophonist Josephine Wells, and violinist Peter Barnett. Second keyboardist George Stewart would also leave the band after this album but would later rejoin the band. The album features new addition, Simon Aldridge, who played guitar, and bass in the band. This album did not reach as much attention and was not as widespread as Kissing the Pink's other albums. It never held a worldwide release. It was their first album to make use of sampling.

34 years after its original release, What Noise was released on CD for the first time in 2018 by Cherry Red as a remastered special edition, which includes the 12 original album tracks plus seven related bonus tracks.
