Dream Rats - from Heaven Since first arriving on the scene in 2009 with blistering inversions of shoegaze, Montreal's No Joy has always found formidable ways to reinvent itself. Now solely composed of musician Jasamine White-Gluz, No Joy has evolved over the course of four studio albums and five EPs, defying expectation and genre, and cementing itself as something rare: a band without a category. It's no surprise, then, that this new No Joy EP, Can My Daughter See Me From Heaven, sees White-Gluz finding new things to mine and explore from the 2020 LP Motherhood. Once again pulling sonic inspirations from every corner the band had mastered before, Motherhood is a staggering and melancholic tapestry of fuzzy, 90s/early 2000s nu metal and trip hop, faithful shoegaze, and bold lyricism- with blunt meditations on femininity, fertility and mortality-all while maintaining a sense of humor. Comprising the tracklisting of Can My Daughter See Me From Heaven are four Motherhood tracks, all of which were reworked during the COVID-19 pandemic. Mixed by frequent collaborator Jorge Elbrecht, mastered by Heba Kadry, and co-produced by White-Gluz and Tara McLeod (who also lends her guitar work to the recordings), the new takes veer into slower, dreamier territory... but calling it "softer" would be a disservice. To help re-conceive the tracks under a new light, White-Gluz enlisted a fresh set of collaborators: there's booming percussion from Sarah Thawson, a cutting cello from Ouri Riou, delicate harp work by Nailah Hunter, and French horn from Brandi Sidoryk - who also provides backup and operatic vocals. They settle into a strange and confident harmony, highlighting the urgency of Motherhood's themes, as White-Gluz's hazy, ethereal vocals soar over the din. Aside from these reimaginings, there's another delightful surprise: a dusky cover of Deftones' immortal classic "Teenager" rounds out the five song EP. It's no wonder that a song by Deftones, another band willing to bulldoze through sonic boundaries, would find a home here. There's a kinship between these artists that makes this cover even more necessary. With Can My Daughter See Me From Heaven, No Joy continues to conjure an effortless mix of sound, achieving new heights, while playing with the more traditional confines of the shoegaze genre.© DirectToU LLC.
