New Split from Joyce Manor and Toys That Kill
Some bands just get a bad rap, and you know what, shame on me. I always lumped Joyce Manor, and Toys That Kill for that matter, in that late-wave emo punk genre. I was a second wave emo kid, so I really just discarded it by and large, but I just got in their new split for Recess Records, and these are just some really good rocking tunes. Honestly, I don’t even know if I’d got so far as to call them punk rock; the TTK tune almost sounds like a bar band approach to the garage stylings of Jay Reatard. Enough about me and my half-ass assumptions; stream these two jams.
