Stream Joanna Gruesome’s Peanut Butter
Welsh punk group Joanna Gruesome have an odd name, but it’s possible that their sound is even more eccentric, combining elements of noise-rock, ’90s punk and modern pop for a sound that’s as angst-ridden as it is harmonically satisfying. The band’s sophomore LP (Peanut Butter, out May 19 via Fortuna Pop!) is garnering a lot of comparisons to Perfect Pussy, but we think it’s best that you give the record a thorough listen before giving in to that hype cycle. Lucky for you, Peanut Butter is streaming on NPR Music a full two weeks before its official release.
