Joy as an Act of Resistance — 2018

A cathartic, compassionate post-punk peak of fury and vulnerability. Loud and acclaimed. Their breakthrough. The run's deeper cut — rewarding if you've worn out the earlier records.

On vinyl: Fresh pressings are easy to source; this is a good one to buy new rather than hunt second-hand.
