WITNESSES
Joy

Joy is the culmination of over five years honing a vision–of doom metal with a heavy emphasis on atmosphere and lyrics rich in imagery & narrative. Where interwoven guitar harmonies draw continued influence from 1990s British doom, complemented by soaring vocals and often mid-paced rhythms. And though the end result has been referred to by many writers as “post”, that’s no problem; rather, it is a testament to a sound that probably doesn’t fit neatly into any one category. But suffice to say there would be no Witnesses without the inspiration of those early Peaceville records. And that spirit is alive and well on Joy.
