Weightless, the new single from nonoc, out September 11, 2026, is an expansive alternative rock ballad where delicate emotion meets a soaring wall of guitars.
A guiding light shining far away, Polaris.
That light of longing has always been there, unchanged,
and yet we had forgotten how to look up at it.
This is a song for all of us who, somewhere along the way, found ourselves looking down.
Lets talk about nothing in particular, and set down our burdens, one by one.
Fill the spaces we leave behind with ordinary, unremarkable moments.
Once weve made ourselves lighter, lets lift our heads again,
so we can go wherever we want.
Those simple moments we shared made us turn toward Polaris once more.
Lyrics are written by nonoc, with music and arrangement by Junichi Sato (fhána), and guitar performed by Shu Honda of Inner Journey. Moving from intimate vocals to a vast, overwhelming rush of sound, Weightless marks a bold new step into alternative rock for nonoc.
