Punk band The Overjoyed have announced their new self-titled album, set for release on 20 February. Blending a Bay Area punk aesthetic with an anthemic pop sensibility, the Athens-formed band channel melody through grit, capturing the restless energy of disenfranchised European youth with a sound that is as confrontational as it is infectious.
