Joyer, tipped at Brooklyn Vegan, Paste Magazine and more, is the shoegaze/slowcore project of brothers Shane and Nick Sullivan based out of Brooklyn and Boston (originally from New Jersey). In the timespan of releasing two studio albums (2020's Sun Into Flies and 2021'sPerfect Gray), they have played across the US with artists such as Knifeplay, Feeble Little Horse, Hovvdy, and Chastity Belt.&nbsp;This new record, Night Songs features friends such as Sabrina Nichols (of Shep Treasure), Boone Patrello (Teethe), James Keegan (Kitchen), and lastly Brad Krieger (Big Nice Studio) who recorded and mastered the album. It was mixed by Alex Farrar from Drop of Sun Studios (previously worked on Wednesday's Rat Saw God ,Indigo De Souza's All Of This Will End and EPs by Angel Olsen and Archers of Loaf).&nbsp;Nighttime changes people. Self-destructive behaviors are more tempting without the judgment of the daytime glow. But night also provides a peaceful, meditative setting for creativity to run wild – a haven to escape one’s day-to-day malaise. Joyer are fascinated by these after-dark hours. Their new album, Night Songs, is an instantly satisfying amalgam of swirling shoegaze guitars and memorable melodies – all while the duo examines the allure of night and its ability to shape shift from a mirror for our inner most demons to a shield from the demands of daily drudgery.Night Songs marks a departure from their hushed slowcore beginnings and displays a more expansive sound — from blowtorched guitars and overtly hooky vocal cadences, to melancholy synths and pastoral lap steel. Their foray into twistier, heavier sonics coincides with the darker nature o fnighttime activities, while the more hi-fi, pop-forward vocal direction makes for a fitting contrast, just like the stark clarity that pitch-black skies provide.
