Joy Streaming New Track "Hope Less"

While not even a year old, North Carolina's Joy boasts a fine-tuned, aggressive nature well beyond the group's youth. After releasing a two-song demo in May of 2015, the quartet toured and played shows all along the East Coast, sharing the stages with Advent, Shai Hulud, Full Of Hell, Power Trip and various others.

Joy will release a new, five-song EP titled "Of Nothing" this coming June 17th on Blood & Ink Records. Check out the song "Hope Less" below, courtesy of MetalSucks.net.

Vocalist Andrew Langhans had this to say: “The lyrics of 'Hope Less' came about as I was overwhelmed and stressed about the direction my life was headed. The monotony of day-to-day happenings and the occasional feeling of being lost has made me wonder from time to time if I should lower my expectations on what my life will amount to. I realize this isn't the most positive outlook, but it's something I have wrestled with. I want my lyrics to be true to myself and honest with whoever listens.”
