Joyful Noise Recordings

Joyful Noise Recordings is an independent music label based in Indianapolis, Indiana. Since its inception in the early 2000s, the label has been dedicated to releasing innovative and boundary-pushing music across various genres.

With a roster that includes *Kishi Bashi*, *Sufjan Stevens*, and *Deerhoof*, Joyful Noise Recordings has become known for its commitment to supporting unique and talented artists. The label's diverse catalog spans from indie rock to experimental pop, showcasing a range of artistic voices.

Not only does Joyful Noise Recordings release albums, but they also offer exclusive limited edition vinyl releases through their subscription service called "The White Label Series." This allows fans to discover new music while collecting rare and collectible records.

Springtime was a short-lived Austrian Pop Rock Band. Their first single "Mr.Captain" achieved chart success, but subsequent recordings did not reach the same level of popularity. In 1978, they represented Austria at the Eurovision's song contest before ultimately disbanding.

Back In Stock

As the world continues to plunge into a fiery blaze of calamity, the Southern Hemisphere’s air warms, its leaves glow green, and the damp earth jolts awake. Springtime is coming to Australia, and it will be ushered in by three sonic shamans who are no strangers to our ears.

Gareth Liddiard (Tropical Fuck Storm / The Drones), Jim White (Dirty Three / Xylouris White) and Chris Abrahams (The Necks) are Springtime a new endeavor that is as much a tonal experiment as it is a meditation on modern-day absurdity. Springtime’s self-titled debut combines free jazz, poignant lyricism crafted alongside renowned Irish poet Ian Duhig aka Gareth Liddiard’s uncle and improvisation to craft austere portraits of a world paralyzed by shellshock. It’s as monstrously ravishing as it is clumsy in its elegance.

Words run into each other with little regard for one another’s injuries. There are sounds which come out of nothingness to wallop and brutalize their fellow sounds. The live recording of Will Oldham’s “West Palm Beach” is treated with love and respect and would certainly be met with open arms by its author.

Across the span of seven tracks, Liddiard incants with wild-eyed fury as White and Abrahams lay down stuttering strings, fizzling electronics, and feathery piano melodies. It is within these raving abstractions that one may find an answer to the enduring question, “What fresh hell will this new season bring?”
