Indie sensations Adult Leisure, based in Bristol, unveil their eagerly awaited second EP titled “Present State of Joy and Grief”. Adult Leisure’s second studio EP, underwent a transformative journey under the expert hands of Ollie Searle at Humm Studios, with the finishing touch of masterful mastering by Grant Berry (known for his work with Boston Manor, Deaf Havana, and Lottery Winners). The four-track EP delves into the intricate realms of unhealthy relationships, heartbreak, loss, change, and self-reflection, showcasing Adult Leisure’s musical prowess and lyrical depth.
There’s something infectious about this band. With two EPs under their belt, “The Weekend Ritual” (2022) and “Present State of Joy and Grief” (2023), I feel that 2024 could possibly bring an album from the band. The foursome know how to craft hooky and catchy songs that are not only bangers but also booty moving. Plus their myriad of social activities feel as if they’re keeping the foot on the pedal from the moment of “Present State of Joy and Grief’s” release.
