London-based Canadian artist Joyeria shares ‘The Curse’, the third track from forthcoming debut album ‘Decay Decay Decay’. The album will deliberately bypass conventional streaming platforms, appearing instead on physical formats and as a digital download through Bandcamp. In an era when musicians are encouraged to feed an endless machine with regular content, vertical videos and cheerful reminders to pre-save everything including breakfast, that decision feels almost rebellious. ‘The Curse’ suits the approach, combining skewed indie rock, lyrical unease and Joyeria’s gift for making everyday anxiety sound both intelligent and slightly ridiculous.
The forthcoming record is shaping up as a project concerned not only with decay as a theme, but also with how music is released, valued and consumed. It asks listeners to engage rather than merely allow the algorithm to place it between two songs about scented candles. A little inconvenient? Possibly. Memorable? Almost certainly.
