Jools – Violent Delights – CD Softpak CD UK punk collective Jools announce debut album Violent Delights out 27th June via Hassle Records. Violent Delights is an anthology of stories that meanders through themes of grief, rage, desire and identity. There are stories of the toxicity of addiction, and growing up around religion; stories of overwhelming obsession, isolating abandonment, and empowering anthems of identity, and stark laments about sexual violence. They are each lived experiences, laid bare, reclaimed with every syllable whether dripping in spite or swagger, anger or anxiety. “Loss is a central theme of the album,” explains vocalist Kate Price. “For us, we have our own specific version of what that is in these songs, but for anyone listening, it could be the loss of something else – a loved one, a relationship. But we’re never mourning loss. We’re celebrating it.
