The Joy Thieves is an ever-expanding industrial/punk/hard rock collective that includes current, former, and touring members of bands such as Ministry, Stabbing Westward, The Rollins Band, Killing Joke, Pigface, Revolting Cocks, <PIG>, David Bowie, Machines of Loving Grace, Marilyn Manson, Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, KMFDM, Naked Raygun, Foetus, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, Blue October, Pegboy, Nitzer Ebb, Die Krupps, White Zombie, and many more.

And while it may be hard to imagine the sound of a band with 60+ members who are spread all across the globe, this musical juggernaut has developed their own unique sound that is surprisingly cohesive.

It’s raw, yet precise.
Combative, but refined.
Dark and aggressive, but topped with triumphantly singable choruses.
It’s a sound that can only be described as being created by all of us. And yet, none of us.

Conceived in late 2017, The Joy Thieves spent a year and a half developing their signature sound before signing with London’s legendary alternative/industrial label, Armalyte Industries in early 2019. Since then, the band has put out seven critically-acclaimed releases on the Armalyte Industries imprint: This Will Kill That, Cities In Dust, A Blue Girl, Genocide Love Song, American Parasite, Nemesis, and 6 To 3.

The Joy Thieves.
It is all of us.
It is none of us.
