The Punk Site 2023 Top 40: #16 Spanish Love Songs – No Joy
At Number 16 in our annual countdown of favourite releases from the past year are Spanish Love Songs with their fourth studio album, No Joy, that was released in August through Pure Noise Records. Brimming with new wave pastiche, fluttering synths, shimmering walls of chorus guitar and four-on-the-floor rhythms, No Joy isn’t an exclamation point follow-up to the emotional catharsis of the landmark Brave Faces Everyone album as much as it is an exhale.
Produced by the band and Collin Pastore and mixed by Carlos De La Garza, the 12 songs on No Joy continue to find Spanish Love Songs grappling with the messiness of what it means to be alive in the modern age. Unsure of the answers themselves but confident that together, we can all come a little closer to the solutions.
