Description

Joyce Manor are California pop-punk legends and I Used To Go To This Bar is this epochal band operating at the top of their game.

Their seventh album finds the group continuing to find rich new veins to tap in their short- and sweet songcraft without losing an ounce of bite that gained them such repute in the first place. I Used To Go To This Bar further situates Joyce Manor in the rich lineage of their influences and inspirations. Think AFIs rapid-fire burn, Weezers indelible power-pop acumen, and the dusky emotionalism of The Smiths while further establishing them as leading lights in the current rock landscape.

The fresh burst of inspiration that fuels I Used To Go To This Bar proves that Joyce Manor are far from content to rest on such laurels, moving forward with their sound and style in a way that reminds you of how they got to this point in the first place. Catch them live later this month.
