Joyce Manor release new music video for ‘All My Friends Are So Depressed’

JOYCE MANOR have released a new music video!

Titled All My Friends Are So Depressed, the new single from the Southern California indie punk band is their first new music in three years, since 2022’s 40 oz. To Fresno. The track was produced by Brett Gurewitz and draws influence from THE SMITHS and 100 GECS.

Speaking about the single, vocalist/guitarist Barry Johnson explains, “the first line I came up with for this song was ‘lord above in a Tecate truck’ after passing a Tecate delivery truck with Jesus shit all over it on the freeway driving back to Long Beach after a show in Fresno. While searching for a line that rhymed with ‘lord above in a Tecate truck’ I came up with ‘why even exist? Who gives a fuck!?’ and the concept of All My Friends Are So Depressed was born. It’s kind of my take on what I imagine LANA DEL REY lyrics are like. Instead of icy, detached cool 50’s Americana, it’s all dirty shag carpet, bong rips, Peter Frampton Comes Alive, key lime pie and suicidal ideations. My flow was inspired by 100 GECS who I was listening to a concerning amount in 2023 (Much respect to Dylan and Laura, please take us on tour). Musically, we were drawing from THE LIBERTINES, TIGER ARMY, X and THE SMITHS… obviously.”
