Returning with his brand new single Joe, today sees Joesef announce his highly anticipated debut album Permanent Damage, set for release on 13 January 2023 on AWAL. The latest single features in a line up of gut-wrenching heartbreak-influenced pop that's delivered in his unique juxtaposed upbeat fashion. Speaking about the album he goes on to say, "I've always found it quite difficult to find peace in myself. Always moving, always thinking, always dreaming, always searching. Until I started making music it was the more destructive aspects of my personality that took over in order to cope with an ever changing landscape of feeling I couldn’t maintain control of. Permanent Damage is about fighting in the street on the way home, kissing in the taxi, having nothing to say in the morning, holding grief in your hands and carrying it with you indefinitely. There is a permanence in what we went through together and it’s affected the way I carry myself and the way I see the world. It's about grieving for a version of myself that I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get back." Take a listen for yourselves below with the Luis Hindman directed clip, a long-time collaborator who perfectly depicts a thunderous relationship centred in his flat in London, which shows the echoes and ghosts of a past lover, and self.
