Melbourne trio The Peep Tempel will release their new LP Joy via Wing Sing on October 14 through Redeye Worldwide.

Joy follows their sophomore album Tales, that captured the attention of fans across Australia and was described as not only a near-perfect punk record, but a brutal look at contemporary suburban Australia. The album — featuring their breakthrough song ‘Carol’— was critically acclaimed and shortlisted for the 2014 Australian Music Prize.

‘Rayguns’ is the first track shared from the forthcoming album. Through the song’s pace, screaming guitar and pointed lyrics, The Peep Tempel attempt to capture the sense of carnival and hysteria, created by certain leaders and members of our community who stand to benefit from steering the disenfranchised and ill-informed down a path of intolerance, hate and fear.
