This week, Joyce Manor shared the video for the instantly-catchy single "Silly Games". According to SPIN, the song sees the band "lean into the pop-side of the pop-punk equation, tempering their guitar fuzz with glockenspiel tinkles and melodic wordless sighs." Watch the video for "Silly Games" now

While Joyce Manor's 2016 release Cody focused on growing up, Million Dollars to Kill Me looks at what happens next: reckonings with love, money, doubt, confusion, and the hope that persists despite it all. Throughout the album, Joyce Manor augment that tension with their layered guitar work: Chase Knobbe's uncommon ability to make songs sound sadder and tougher at the same time, Barry Johnson's flair for mixing minor and major chords to invoke a precise kind of overpowering melancholy.

With their lineup now also including bassist Matt Ebert and new drummer Pat Ware, the band made their Epitaph Records debut with Never Hungover Again: a 2014 effort that Pitchfork hailed as "their most ambitious and diverse album, as weird as it is instantly enjoyable."
