"Room Noises" is the first full-length album of the band Eisley. It was released on February 8, 2005 on Reprise Records. The album was placed at #9 among Paste Magazine's top albums of 2005. [http://www.metacritic.com/music/bests/2005.shtml] The album produced three "singles", all having music videos (Memories, Telescope Eyes, I Wasn't Prepared). Only Telescope Eyes was pushed to radio/television. Memories wasn't a planned single. The creators of the video approached the band with the idea for the video. I Wasn't Prepared was to be pushed to radio/t.v. but the final cut of the video with actors talking over the music didn't sit well with the band and they asked for it to be changed. Nothing came of it.
