    NOLA Electro Peace Punk.
    Each tape comes with a JOY badge, til I run out.

    "a wailing, weirdly catchy cacophony of kilterless groove punk perfect for throwing a brick through a Starbucks window, or just getting cigarette burns on your older sister’s Pylon shirt."
    Zachary Lipez, Abundant Living

    "Joy is a New Orleans trio that makes crusty peace punk, mixing This Heat and Rudimentary Peni into Killing Joke's industrial intensity."
    Tracy Wilson, Turntable Report

    “A guitar/bass/drums trio with the latter element, Griz Palella, chipping in extra electronics and sharing vocals with guitarist Pasha Jovanovic, at various points Joy sounds – to me – like Fugazi, The Mob, Shopping, The Slits, Chicks On Speed … and NOLA neighbours Special Interest, if only because I’d like to think a band that inspiring are, well, inspiring others in their locale.”
    Noel Gardner, The Quietus

    "Midfi, crystal clear angular punk songs that are equally catchy and discordant. Scratchy, taught guitar over tight baselines and metronomic drums aligned with astute, deadpan vocals and excellent songwriting. They really have it all. Not a dull moment in this release." Sims, (ig @u2_is_a_government_drone)

lyrics

Success above all else
The winner takes the rotting crown
The gentleman risks nothing
Our great protector

Violence is his preference

Success above all else
Cock the gun and dress
Their wounds with the other hand,
This man deserves your respect

Violence demands respect

Success above all else
The winner takes the rotting crown
The gentleman risks nothing but,
Our, our hands

Violence is his language

Success above all else
Cock the gun and dress
Their wounds with the other hand
This man deserves your respect

Violence deserves respect

Success above all else
The winner takes the rotting crown
The gentleman risks nothing but,
Our, our hands
