From Torrance, California

From last.fm:

Joyce Manor is American band from Torrance, California. With their first release in 2010, they play well-shaped kind of fun and energetic music. Currently they're signed to Asian Man Records (though they were previously on 6131) and have 2 demos, 1 EP, 2 splits, 2 full-lengths, and 1 compilation to their name. They've got a very distinct sound without stereotypes, blandness, or replicas. Their influences could include Jawbreaker, Descendents, Weezer, even Thin Lizzy and The Smiths. Yet they don't sound like direct rip-offs of any of them. It's cool. Read more about Joyce Manor on Last.fm.
