A loose collective of musicians delivered one of the year’s tightest sets of music. The Joy Thieves recently put out their first full-length (“American Parasite”), and gave us the cathartic, drive fast, live-without-consequences, kind of music that the end of summer was made for.   And when I say “loose collective,” The Joy Thieves’ 50+ member roster also includes current, former and touring members of Ministry, Stabbing Westward, Nitzer Ebb, Revolting Cocks, Pigface, KMFDM, Marilyn Manson, , Blue October, Black Needle Noise, 16VOLT, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, and more.
