Joyce Manor - Never Hungover Again

Cover art included, liner notes not included

“California's Joyce Manor drop pearls of pop-punk wisdom: songs that are rich in melody, short in length, and colored with a gentle-hearted loneliness.” - Spin

‘With albums shorter than it takes to watch an episode of Space Ghost Coast to Coast; the punk band can pack an emotional wallop with as much as a yelp.” - NPR

“The world needs this album now.” - Grantland

Never Hungover Again was recorded with friend and producer Joe Reinhardt in Hollywood's Lair studio and mixed by Tony Hoffer who is known for his work with Supergrass, Belle and Sebastian, M83 and Phoenix. If there’s a feeling to Never Hungover Again, says Barry, it’s a feeling he can’t quite pin down—some complex thing that’s part anger and part sadness. It's the loneliness when you’re surrounded by people and that lostness when everything you’ve wanted seems to be right in front of you. And if there’s a single moment that defines Never Hungover Again, it’s the way “The Jerk” ends with feedback and a chord ringing over Barry’s last shout of “It all goes wrong!”—because despite the confusion and sorrow and resignation, it somehow sounds so right.
