Sick Joy have announced their debut album, 'WE'RE ALL GONNA F***ING DIE'

Rising British rockers Sick Joy have announced their debut album, 'WE'RE ALL GONNA F***ING DIE'.
Set to arrive on 8th July via SO Recordings, it comes alongside a new single, 'i've got more than i need (and i don't have much)'.
Speaking about the track, singer/guitarist Mykl Barton explains: "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."
Full-length 'WE'RE ALL GONNA F***ING DIE' features contributions from Jamie Lenman and Mykl’s stepdad.
“For me, that title’s a positive,” says Mykl. “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.”
