Joy - Idols Of Perversity

    


  Often when I have a song lingering on the "to do list" for ages it eventually gets forgotten about and passed over in favour of newer releases but the song you're getting today is too good to not feature. 

  The band are called Joy, they line up with Pasha Jovanovic (guitar, lead vocals), Griz Palella (drums, electronics, vocals) and Heiress V (bass) and they're from New Orleans. Rather intriguingly they tag themselves anarcho-spice but don't worry, rather than sounding like the girl power wannabes they lean more towards a darkly delicious post punk style of music. 

  The beat, both drum and electro, is up front and in your face whilst Pasha's vocals are just right for this kind of thing. They released a debut Self Titled ep in October. I think there's a cassette on the way in February from Girlsville Records but for now you can get the digital version here :   https://joyno.bandcamp.com/album/joy 

  This track is called Idols Of Perversity...

Idols of perversity A woman's place is on the cross Sickly and bedridden Barefoot and pregnant Idols of perversity They only like you when you're serving time Flattery is the dull edge Persistent as the rising tide Where is the needles eye if not the upturned nose? Property, possession, perversion, obsession Your body's nothing more than a currency site of extraction, a mine, an attraction
