No Joy are a band that cannot be defined, the dance between genres with such ease and grace it is hard to pin them down. They are a band that are constantly evolving, imagine a chameleon changing colours to fit its environment.

They have already established themselves across the pond in Canada and America but are on a European conquest this year, will the merchants of noise conquer Europe? We can only wait and hope they do.

Their latest release ‘A Thorn In Garland’s Side’ is a clattering wall of sound that is lead by ferocious percussion and a belting riff and It is taken off their upcoming ‘Drool Sucker’ EP, set for release July 15th via Topshelf Records.
