EH090-2
Originally formed in the late '90s, As Friends Rust has been through a few iterations, but it is the core line-up of vocalist Damien Moyal, guitarist Joseph Simmons, guitarist James Glayat, and drummer Timothy Kirkpatrick that are creating thought-provoking, melodic punk music for the modern age, a tried and true formula reminiscent of bands like Hot Water Music and Avail. With three EPs, two 7"s, and a full-length in their history, As Friends Rust already has a lifetime of work in their pocket, but the seven songs on "Any Joy" might just be their most striking yet. Not currently having a permanent bassist, the band called upon friend Andrew Seward (of Against Me!) to play bass on most of the record, with additional contributions from Simmons. Imported from Germany.
