LP version. Formed from the ashes of an unrecorded '77 punk band Speed, Band Of Holy Joy's initial musical forays were largely in the domain of industrial bricolage and occasional bursts of madness. When they re-emerged at the end of the first decade of the new century, it was on their terms. A fiercely devoted fan base LED to regular, albeit low-key releases. In some aspects, they're an art collective. Inspired by the possibilities which burst forth after punk, the band's expression takes many.
