Two bands with similar names have released new music recently. Auckland indie rock band The Beths put out their latest song called No Joy. Jasamine White-Gluz leads a different musical project that also goes under the name No Joy. Her group just shared a new track titled Bits from their upcoming album Bugland. The coincidental timing creates some potential confusion for music fans.

White-Gluz drew inspiration for Bits from a personal memory dating back to 1994. She wrote a letter as a child defending musician Courtney Love against media criticism. Excerpts from that original letter appear as spoken word segments near the end of the new song. The artist used an Earthquaker Devices Bit Commander guitar pedal to create heavily distorted sounds for the demo recording. She wanted the music to capture feelings of running through tall grass and playing hide and seek behind large trees.

The finished track features restless energy that builds toward an unexpected conclusion. Sweeping and hazy guitar sounds dominate the final section of the song. Bugland will arrive on August 8 through Hand Drawn Dracula and Sonic Cathedral record labels. The album represents the latest creative output from White-Gluz and her musical collaborators. Music streaming platforms will make the full release available to listeners worldwide.
