Throughout the album, singer \/ guitarist\u00a0Jasamine\u00a0White-Gluz, guitarist Laura Lloyd, drummer Garland Hastings, and bassist Michael\u00a0Farsky, (formerly of Dirty Beaches\u0092 live band) push themselves to new peaks of intensity.<\/p>\n<p>The album bears the fruit of a band that has refined its work ethic in the gulf of time between recording sessions. The outcome \u2013 a juxtaposition of unrest and calm, beauty and chaos, truth and fantasy, in the throes of dimed amps and hair-whipping guitar goddess rock music \u2013 is as unwavering as ever.<\/p>\n<p>Where No Joy\u0092&#8217;s last album,\u00a0&#8216;Wait To Pleasure&#8217; balanced textural difference with the freewheeling novelty of the studio environment,\u00a0&#8216;More Faithful&#8217; documents a much more rigorous creative process and performance.<\/p>\n<p>For\u00a0&#8216;More Faithful,&#8217;\u00a0No Joy worked with musician and producer Jorge\u00a0Elbrecht (Ariel Pink\u0092s Haunted Graffiti, Chairlift,\u00a0Violens). Recording was split between tracking at Brooklyn studio Gary\u0092s Electric and an old farmhouse in Costa Rica.<\/p>\n<p>In this rural Costa Rican setting,\u00a0Elbrecht created a makeshift but nurturing studio environment where he and No Joy did the mixing, overdubs, and cut vocals for 12 hours a day. Repairing themselves to an isolated environment strengthened No Joy\u0092s regimented approach to making a record that satisfied their vision.<\/p>\n<p>There is no question that\u00a0&#8216;More Faithful&#8217;\u00a0is the most forward, throttling record No Joy has made taking their sound to the wall in a brazen display of beauty-laced power. At times\u00a0&#8216;More Faithful&#8217;\u00a0is heavier than anything they\u0092ve done yet, while also their fastest, riffs shooting upward in discord and drifting down in angelic harmonies.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/MEX200-Cover-hi-res_zpsvxfuireg.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13061\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/MEX200-Cover-hi-res_zpsvxfuireg.jpg?resize=300%2C300\" alt=\"MEX200 - Cover hi res_zpsvxfuireg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/MEX200-Cover-hi-res_zpsvxfuireg.jpg?resize=300%2C300 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/MEX200-Cover-hi-res_zpsvxfuireg.jpg?resize=150%2C150 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/MEX200-Cover-hi-res_zpsvxfuireg.jpg?w=1024 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n&#8216;More Faithful&#8217; track listing<\/strong>:<br \/>\n1.
