"Joyce Manor are basically a California punk institution. 16+ years and seven albums into their career, they've transcended the scene and era that they came from and they've become one of the most distinct and reliable punk bands currently going."
"I Used To Go To This Bar is their first album entirely produced by Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz, who knows how to get the best out of a band without messing with their formula."
"The album has a few moments where Joyce Manor spread their wings, like with the alt-country/cowpunk of 'All My Friends Are So Depressed' and the funk-punk of 'After All You Put Me Through,' but most of this LP is trademark Joyce Manor."
"In classic Joyce Manor fashion, it's got no fat, with just nine songs that hover around two minutes each, and this time they even end the LP with an abrupt stop that provides the exact opposite of a grand finale."
Joyce Manor has released a limited edition vinyl variant of their album I Used To Go To This Bar. The album, produced by Brett Gurewitz, features nine concise tracks that highlight the band's signature punk style. It includes diverse influences, such as alt-country and funk-punk, while remaining true to their roots. The album's production emphasizes brevity and impact, culminating in an unexpected ending. Joyce Manor continues to solidify their status as a prominent punk band after 16 years and seven albums.
