Joy were an avantgarde/post-punk band centered around vocalist Baki of Gastunk and including one of the guys of Madame Edwarda. Musically you can certainly hear influences by the usual suspects british classics like Gang Of Four and Killing Joke in the repetitive and/or dubby bass lines and in the jangly, atonal guitar, but there’s definitely a lot more avantgarde weirdness in their songs. Also, what’s not to love about a band called Joy with album called Perverts? The lousy job I did scanning the cover, maybe?
Except for a couple compilation tracks this 12“ was Joy’s only release.
