No Joy – “Four”

No Joy – “Four”

No Joy are gearing up for the release of Motherhood, their first new album in five years. They’ve already shared early singles “Birthmark” and “Nothing Will Hurt.” And today they’re back with “Four,” which starts out with droning electric guitar, morphs into a chilled-out ’90s trip-hop throwback, and then closes out with a full-on explosion of guitar-squall heaviness.

Director Jodi Heartz’s music video spotlights indigenous makeup artist Ashley Diabo, and the band are encouraging fans to donate to Canadian Roots Exchange, Native Women’s Association Of Canada, True North Aid, and Unist’ot’en Camp. Watch and listen below.

Motherhood is out 8/21 on Joyful Noise/Hand Drawn Dracula. Pre-order it here.
