In the closing week of May 2020, Joyce Manor, an emo/punk outfit from Torrance, Calif., surprised listeners with a raw and, for the most part, never before heard, full-length release of recordings from the band’s early years titled
Songs From Northern Torrance. The record contains only recordings from Joyce Manor’s first two years of existence, 2008-2010, and all but one song had never been formally released before.
In the years following mainstream success, Joyce Manor began to be known for their wailing emo vocals and gritty, yet still polished, rhythmic guitar lines.
Songs From Northern Torrance takes the band in a different direction or, rather, a reversion back to where they started.
