Rhode Islandâs caustic punk/noise rock crew ANXIOUS WAVE has delivered another ripping video from their debut LP, Live From The Poison Factory. The video for âNothing Elicits Joyâ has just been premiered through New Noise Magazine as Nefarious Industries prepares to drop the record in early September.
The musical collaboration of four stalwarts of the Providence music scene, ANXIOUS WAVE unites guitarist Mikey Belcastro (ex-Product Of Waste, Violent Sons), vocalist Brandon St. Pierre, bass player Sam Okon, and drummer Dylan Lagory. After forming in early 2018, the group released a digital demo that March, followed by the self-released cassette EP Love Quantified in November, and a Summer 2019 split with friends PanzerChocolate.
ANXIOUS WAVE spent the majority of the 2020 lockdown writing and recording their first full-length album, Live From The Poison Factory. The recordâs ten riotous tracks were engineered and mixed by Bryan DeStefano at Roach Ranch and mastered by Will Benoit (SOM) at The Radar Studio, and the song âExecutive Dissectorâ features additional vocals by Marina Phom of PanzerChocolate. The album was completed with photography by Vinnie Bellows at 476 Productions, artwork by Greg Pennisten, and layout by Greg Meisenberg.
As with the previously released âComplex Needsâ video, âNothing Elicits Joyâ is the second Live From The Poison Factory album video created by Monster Makeup Productions, a local collective of filmmakers creating independent horror films with a focus on LGBTQ storytelling.
Bassist Sam Okron reveals, ââNothing Elicits Joyâ is one of my favorite songs to play â itâs got a great aggressive energy to it and itâs really fun live. The guys at Monster Makeup Productions did a great job of capturing the aggressive, chaotic feel of the song in the video.â
