Louder Than The Music

An EP recorded by British band The Joy Brigade is released today, more than 10 years after it was recorded. The previously unreleased four-track 'Counting Days' EP was recorded straight to 2 inch tape at ICC Studios in Eastbourne late one night in 2002, and is now available to download from iTunes.

Formed in 2001, The Joy Brigade consisted of ex Split Level frontman Adrian Thompson (now A&R Manager at Kingsway) on vocals and guitar, recording engineer and producer Trevor Michael (Phatfish, Trent) on guitar and backing vocals, well known UK session musicians Mark Prentice (Worship Central, Tom & Olly) on bass and Paul Evans (Delirious?) on drums.

"Loud, Melodic, Raw, Passionate, Sincere, and obviously Joyful, are all words you could use to describe The Joy Brigade" says 7Core Music. "They played a handful of shows over that year in the UK, Germany and Sweden, and then disappeared. Where are they now you ask ? Watch out. Anything could happen..."
