JOY follow up their debut self titlled EP with "Beacon Of Excess"

While there's a lot of growth and experimentation here, New Orleans JOY remain both accessible and challenging. Non-obvious hypnotic hooks tangle with incredible rhythms and blasts of noise.

The set also Includes a collaboration with Ruth Mascelli of SPECIAL INTEREST.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING:

GIRLSVILLE IS OFFERING DEEPLY DISCOUNTED INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING BECAUSE I AM PERSONALLY SUBSIDIZING IT, BUT THERE ARE A FEW RULES & CAVEATS THAT, IF IGNORED, WILL RESULT IN YOUR ORDER BEING CANCELLED/REFUNDED.

VINYL:
IF BUYING 12" VINYL PLEASE BUY EITHER 1 OR 2 RECORDS AT A TIME. IF YOU WANT TO ORDER A THIRD OR FOURTH RECORD PLEASE START A NEW ORDER, ALSO WITH A MAXIMUM OF TWO (2) VINYL LP'S IN EACH ORDER.

DO NOT COMBINE VINYL ORDERS WITH CASSETTE ORDERS, PLEASE START A SEPARATE CASSETTE ORDER AS THEY MUST SHIP IN DIFFERENT PACKAGES.

MY 14" WIDE VINYL MAILERS CAN HOLD 2 RECORDS AT A TIME, ALSO RESULTING IN MY NEEDING TO START A NEW PACKAGE IF MORE THAN 2 LP'S ARE ORDERED AT A TIME.

CASSETTES & CD'S:
I'VE DISCOUNTED INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING ON CASSETTES & CD'S AS WELL. YOU CAN BUY AS MANY AS YOU WANT IN THE SAME ORDER BECAUSE THE PRICE FOR SHIPPING FOR A SECOND OR THIRD CASSETTE OR CD, WHILE DISCOUNTED, IS THE SAME PRICE AS THE FIRST CASSETTE OR CD.

PLEASE DO NOT COMBINE CASSETTES/CD'S WITH VINYL, AS THEY MUST SHIP IN DIFFERENT PACKAGES.

I'M TRYING TO OFFER INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS A BREAK ON OUTRAGEOUS SHIPPING COSTS BY SUBSIDIZING A PART OF THE SHIPPING, & WHILE ALSO TRYING TO FUNCTION AND SURVIVE AS AN INDEPENDENT BEDROOM PUNK LABEL.

MY CUT WILL BE SIMILAR TO WHOLESALE ON INTERNATIONAL ORDERS.

I know you've been waiting for deference Something that you notice in its absence Power to weakness to power Leads you like a lamb to the slaughter I know you've been waiting for deference Something that you notice in its absense Power and influence Power leads you out of the depths and towards the altar Don't ask me how Refer to the handbook Violence in fine print Patient all your life We own your body We own your time while you're I know you've been waiting for healing You're waiting, you're waiting, you're waiting For permission that will never come You're waiting for rewards for your loyalty You're waiting for the privileged few to notice you To lead you like a lamb to the slaughter To lead you out of the depths and towards the altar You're waiting for your ship to come in So patient as the walls burn down around you To lead you like a lamb to the slaughter To lead you out of the depths and towards the altar I know you've been waiting for deference Something that you notice in its absence Power and influence Power leads you out of the depths and towards the altar Don't ask me how refer to the handbook Violence in fine print Patient all your life We own your body we own your time while you're Waiting, you're waiting, you're waiting For permission that will never come You're waiting, you're waiting, you're waiting For permission that will never come

4.	YOU ARE HERE 01:43	lyrics	buy track
Eyes on the water Gonna die on this landfill We can say we tried But who bear witness for us here Here In the air in the water Here In the air in the water Did you pull the levers Or did you cut the wires Finally what's the difference When the wake still hits the shore here Here In the air in the water Here In the air in the water Sick and spinning still Nailed to the axis of this earth Everything you touch now Withers on the vine Keep your eyes on the water A new malice waits for you here Here In the air in the water Here In the air in the water
5.	CROSS THE EARTH 03:23	lyrics	buy track
Always in motion Always spinning Cross the Earth Cross the Earth Feet firmly planted On shifting soil Cross the Earth Ah Past holds hostage Ah Burden of choice Burden of proof Carry that Cross the earth Over and over Repeat their mistakes Catch and release Ah Past holds hostage Ah Always in motion Always spinning Cross the Earth Feet firmly planted On shifting soil Cross the Earth Ah Past holds hostage Past holds hostage The harder the shell the softer the flesh The longer the sentence the sweeter the death

7.	THE LADDER 03:19	lyrics	buy track
I feel your rigid defences I'd expect nothing less We consent to building fences More things I'd later regret Climb higher Climb higher Dancing on this broken back Innocence never paid debts A bait and switch Based on lack Do you have any regrets Hey do you Hey do you Push another one down the ladder Am I redeemed by another ones failure Am I redeemed by another ones faults When you decide to come around You might not be welcome Climb higher Climb higher Am I redeemed by another ones failure Am I redeemed by another ones faults Climb higher Climb higher Am I redeemed by another ones failure Am I redeemed by another ones faults
8.	GILDED CAGE FOR BABY 02:53	lyrics	buy track
You are mine Always Keep you safe From reality You are mine Always close to me Keep me company You are my Prized possession Got a gilded cage for baby You are mine Only No one touches You but me You are my prized possession Got a gilded cage for baby You are grace and mercy Isolated so you need me You are mine I protect you Nothing less would do For my prized possession Gilded cage for baby For baby For baby For baby
