Enigmatic Epitaph rockers Joyce Manor returned to Australia in February and March 2019, playing a show at Kambri at ANU as well as Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne. The show was the perfect accompaniment to those melancholy ‘end of summer’ feels.
The headline run follows a huge visit in 2017 which saw Joyce Manor play to sold out rooms supporting The Smith Street Band as well as their own sweaty club shows. The tour celebrated the release of Joyce Manor’s acclaimed fifth album Million Dollars To Kill Me, released in September on Epitaph.
Recorded with Kurt Ballou of Converge, the album is “awash with a tangible, almost haunting yearning. It is filled with miniature spaces containing huge, overwhelming anxieties, in short digestible punk” (Spin Magazine).
