Sick Joy announce debut album ‘We’re All Gonna F***ing Die’
SICK JOY have announced their debut album!
Titled We’re All Gonna F***ing Die, the upcoming album from the Brighton-based rock band is their debut full-length record and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via SO Recordings.
“For me, that title’s a positive,” says vocalist/guitarist Mykl Barton about the upcoming album. “I realised, ‘it’s going to be over one day, man’. So do whatever the fuck you’re gonna do, and have a good fucking time. And I don’t mean just get loaded and be a dick. I mean do the things you want to do. Don’t let fear decide where you’re going to go. We’re all going to fucking die. So get out and fucking kill it, man.”
Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming debut; i’ve got more than i need (and I don’t have much). Speaking about the new song, Mykl adds, “it came from a feeling of exasperation towards trying to process some things from my past that I’d been dealing with in damaging ways and realising it. I didn’t have space in my head to be clever or dance around stuff lyrically, it was just emphatically – ‘this is what this is and I can see it now. Like, fuck, this is heavy and it hurts, but there’s a vein of fighting back flowing through it too’. It’s a flagship of the theme and message that runs through the album, this positive nihilism. It’s a linear story of the whole process I was going through, anger, sadness, doubt, fear and ultimately, hope and empowerment.”
