This album was produced by Converge\u2019s Kurt Ballou. <em>Million Dollars to Kill Me<\/em> came to life at Ballou\u2019s own GodCity Studio in Salem, Massachusetts. Certainly Joyce Manor\u2019s most tame release, <em>Million Dollars To Kill Me <\/em>shows the maturation of the entire band, both lyrically and instrumentally. As always, Joyce Manor remains peppy and punky, while packing a powerful punch into their very short songs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">While Joyce Manor\u2019s prior release <em>Cody <\/em>(2016) had more of a youthful vibe, <em>Million Dollars to Kill Me<\/em> looks into life after adolescence. Just as the title of the album would suggest, money is a recurring theme throughout the album. A lot less punky and fast-paced than earlier releases like \u201cNever Hungover Again\u201d (2014) or their self-titled album (2011), <em>Million Dollars to Kill Me<\/em> is more reminiscent of <em>Cody.<\/em> If anything, it is even more mellow and melodic, but decidedly<em> not <\/em>boring. Some of the songs off of it, like \u201cGone Tomorrow\u201d, even veer into evoking the shoegaze subgenre. This dream-pop atmosphere is something many bands are turning to lately with the popularity of bands like Turnover, Teenage Wrist and of course, Slowdive. <\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Some highlights off of the album are \u201cWildflowers\u201d, \u201cUp The Punx\u201d, \u201cI\u2019m Not The One\u201d, and \u201cMillion Dollars To Kill Me\u201d (so, almost half the album because it is truly just that good). Starting with the third track on the album, \u201cI\u2019m Not The One\u201d is one of the most melodic tracks on the album that proposes a narrative about finding love, navigating finances, and the truth. The lyrics throughout the album seem to almost rhyme continually and very cleverly, but songwriter and vocalist Barry showcases that skill the best on this track. Combining struggles of navigating class and romance with more adolescent, niche hot-takes on these issues. For instance, in \u201cI\u2019m Not The One\u201d\u2019s bridge, Barry yells:<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201c<em>Dog at the door who\u2019s the king of hardcore, &#8217;cause he\u2019s always been\/Booking the shows\/where they sell the most clothes &#8217;cause they\u2019re so limited.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">The title track off the album, \u201cMillion Dollars To Kill\u201d has an incredibly catchy chorus that reveals even that of \u201cFake ID\u201d (off of <em>Cody<\/em>). The guitars pick up as Barry decares:<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201c<em>She\u2019s the only one who can take you to the pawn shop and sell you for twice what you\u2019re worth\/Nobody tells you it hurts to be loved.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Following the rocking chorus is an angsty, aggressive bridge. When seeing a Joyce Manor concert only two days after the album\u2019s release, the crowd already knew the words and sang along: <\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201c<em>One day you will realize\/You are nothing, nothing without her\/You\u2019re an asshole from a bar\/ on a break in a breakroom\/and you\u2019re never happy!<\/em>\u201d <\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Next, \u201cUp The Punx\u201d begins with an intro that&#8217;s highly reminiscent of a Tiny Moving Parts song off<em> Swell<\/em>. \u201cUp The Punx\u201d combines fun, abstractive lyrics like<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201c<em>Broke-a-hontas, orange eating\/Talk like that, now watch who&#8217;s screaming<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">These are reminiscent of the same fun vibe \u201cAshtray Petting Zoo\u201d, with a harmonic and syncopated instrumentation, especially emphasizes by Pat Ware, on the drums. Despite how energetic the track sounds, however, the lyrics seem melancholic and hollow as Barry yells out asking:<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201c<em>Is anybody out there?\/Is anybody out there this time?<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201cWildflowers\u201d is the slowest and dreamiest song off the album. The track starts with a catchy, upbeat guitar riff unto which vocalist Barry angelically interludes<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\u201c<em>sunshine coming in through\/the open window\/of my bedroom.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">This track is the last song off the album and ends it on an optimistic note. \u201cMillion Dollars To Kill Me\u201d is a fantastic release that shows how much the band has matured and learned to ace somewhat slower, less in your face songs that provide just as much fun and vitality now in a more reflective, twinklier composition.<\/p>\n<p data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\n  sqs-gallery-container\n  sqs-gallery-block-slider\n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n  \n    \n    \n
