Album Description
Available in:
Above the Noise is the fifth studio album from English pop rock band McFly. The album was released on 15 November 2010. The album spawned three singles: "Party Girl", which was released on 6 September; "Shine a Light", which was released on 8 November; and "That's the Truth", which was released on 6 March 2011.

The album's title was revealed when it was made available to pre-order from the HMV website. The band made the album available to download to members of their new official website, SuperCity. The band have worked with producers Dallas Austin and Taio Cruz on the album, which sees them return to their former record label, Island Records. The album's track listing was revealed on 25 October 2010. The album was certified as Gold in the UK. The album was released concurrently with the DVD Behind the Noise, which was exclusive to Asda, which contained behind-the-scenes footage from the album in addition to two music videos.

Background
After the release of "Falling in Love", McFly headed back into the studio to begin work on their next album. On 22 January 2010, it was announced that the band were going to re-sign with former label Island Records. This was later revealed to be a 50/50 deal that sees all profits except publishing split between Universal and McFly, including money from touring, record sales, merchandise and sponsorship. The band began writing with producer Dallas Austin in April 2010. The album's title comes from a line in the second verse of the single "Shine a Light": "Tell me can you hear my voice, loud and clear above the noise?"

Above the Noise was executive produced by Dallas Austin, who personally produced nearly all of the songs, bar "Shine a Light" and "Nowhere Left to Run". Rick Sheppard handled recording, with assistant recording engineers Andrew Nitsch and Ian Rossiter at DARP Studios & Home Recordings. "Shine a Light" and "Nowhere Left to Run" were produced by Taio Curz and Alan Nglish, with engineer John Hanes and assistant Tim Roberts. Jason Perry did instrument production across "Party Girl", "Nowhere Left to Run" and "That's the Truth" at ICP Recording Studios in Brssels, Belgium. Adam Noble did engineering on "Party Girl" and "Nowhere Left to Run", the latter also had engineering from Scott McCormick and Ben Jackson, with assistant Jack Tarrant, at EMI Music Publishing Studios. Robert Orton mixed almost every track, save for "Shine a Light", which was done by Serban Ghenea at MixStar Studios in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Tim Young then mastered the album at Metropolis Mastering.
