Joyce Manor<\/a> are back with \u201cAll My Friends Are So Depressed,\u201d the trio\u2019s first new song in three years.<\/p>\n With a shuffling groove and an overall lack of distortion on their guitars, \u201cAll My Friends Are So Depressed\u201d is a more somber, meditative offering from Joyce Manor. They channel the song\u2019s strung-out subject matter in their melancholy arrangement, which includes wistful \u201cAhhs\u201d and softer tones, all while frontman Barry Johnson provides his best Morrissey impression. Stream the song below.<\/p>\n For \u201cAll My Friends Are So Depressed,\u201d the band was inspired by The Smiths, 100 gecs, and Lana Del Rey, as well as The Libertines, X, and Tiger Army. \u201cThe first line I came up with for this song was \u2018lord above in a Tecate truck\u2019 after passing a Tecate delivery truck with Jesus shit all over it on the freeway driving back to Long Beach after a show in Fresno,\u201d Johnson explained in a press release.<\/p>\n Related Video<\/p>\n \u201cWhile searching for a line that rhymed with \u2018lord above in a Tecate truck\u2019 I came up with \u2018why even exist? Who gives a fuck!?\u2019 and the concept of \u2018All My Friends Are So Depressed\u2019 was born. It\u2019s kind of my take on what I imagine Lana Del Rey lyrics are like. Instead of icy, detached cool 50\u2019s Americana, it\u2019s all dirty shag carpet, bong rips, Peter Frampton Comes Alive<\/em>, key lime pie and suicidal ideations.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAll My Friends Are So Depressed\u201d is Joyce Manor\u2019s first new music offering since their 2022 effort,\u00a040 oz. to Fresno<\/em><\/a>. Since that album\u2019s release, the band has gone on to tour and collaborate with Weezer, released a split single with Tigers Jaw<\/a>, embarked on US treks with PUP, Jawbreaker, and The Gaslight Anthem, and performed their songs \u201cConstant Headache\u201d and \u201cCatalina Fight Song\u201d on Everybody\u2019s Live with John Mulaney\u2019<\/em>s initial run,\u00a0Everybody\u2019s In LA.<\/em><\/p>\n
