West Coast trio Joyce Manor has announced their upcoming album titled ‘I Used To Go To This Bar’.
The album, produced by renowned SoCal punk figure Brett Gurewitz, sees the Californian group – Barry Johnson, Chase Knobbe, and Matt Ebert – embracing their signature sound.
Set for release on January 30th via Epitaph, the album includes nine tracks, with the lead single ‘Well, What It Was’ already available.
This single draws from the rich lineage of West Coast alt music, incorporating various familiar influences.
Barry Johnson of the band shares his thoughts…
‘Well, Whatever It Was’ has to be one of the most quintessentially Southern California songs ever made. I detect elements of Jane’s Addiction in the verses, Beach Boys and Weezer in the chorus, and a touch of RHCP in the outro. It was LITERALLY produced by the guy from Bad Religion, for crying out loud. Everyone was really delivering on this one. Joey Waronker’s drumming, TLA’s mixing, and Lenny Castro’s percussion all propelled it to the finish line. This song would rock in a Shrek movie…
The single also features a video directed by Lance Bangs, in which Joyce Manor parodies the popular TV show Great British Bake Off.
