Joyce Manor announce their anticipated new album, I Used To Go To This Bar, due January 30, 2026 via Epitaph Records. Alongside the announcement, the band shares a Lance Bangs-directed video for lead single Well, Whatever It Was that parodies The Great British Bake Off, featuring a cast of comedians and musicians playing UK rockstars.
“‘Well, Whatever It Was’ has got to be one of the most Southern California-sounding songs ever recorded. I hear Jane’s Addiction in the verses, Beach Boys/Weezer in the chorus, and RHCP in the outro. It was LITERALLY produced by the guy from Bad Religion FFS. Everyone was just firing on all cylinders for this one. Joey Warnoker’s drumming, TLA’s mix, and Lenny Castro’s percussion all just sent it to the end-zone. This song would go insanely hard in a Shrek film,” says Barry Johnson.
