ANNOUNCING: Electric Jesus
During the mid-1980s, Christian heavy metal began to emerge in American popular culture. ‘Electric Jesus’ tells the fictional story of one of those groups: a teenage Christian metal band called 316.
Any decent fictional rock biopic requires a convincing soundtrack, and Electric Jesus’ director Chris White found the perfect collaborator in Daniel Smith (Danielson, Danielson Famile, Brother Danielson). Smith is known for his highly unique vocal style, which is characterized by the frequent use of a screeching falsetto. Serendipitously, this sound overlaps perfectly with the screaming falsetto vocals of hair metal.
Available on 2xLP splatter vinyl (limited to 316) & 2xLP black vinyl, both with deluxe gatefold artwork.

Joyful Noise is not your standard record label... We are artistic facilitators for a wide variety of adventurous musicians. We aren't focused on any particular genre, nor are we particularly focused on popularity. We value art over commerce, and we exist to empower our artists to create the most meaningful work possible.
Since our humble beginning in 2003, Joyful Noise has grown a diverse roster of bands including: Kishi Bashi, Deerhoof, WHY?, Tropical Fuck Storm, Son Lux, Joan of Arc, El Ten Eleven, Swamp Dogg, Ohmme, The Ophelias, Dale Crover, SUUNS, Sleep Party People, Magic Sword, The Low Anthem, No Joy, Danielson, Oneida, Rob Crow, Sound of Ceres, Lou Barlow, and many others. We have also released a slew of limited specialty releases on inventive formats (such as multi-spindle-holed vinyl, cassette box sets, hybrid CD-records, a cymbal-record, etc.), and have created numerous record series such as our VIP Editions and White Label Series. We like to push the boundaries of traditional formats, and make our physical releases as artful as the music they contain.
Joyful Noise is run by a small group of just 10 people who strive to create one of the most artist-friendly labels on the planet, both in terms of artistic freedom and financial transparency. We also believe in social justice, and often use our label platform to organize benefit releases for struggling or marginalized communities around the world. We even started a "church" to help struggling musicians.
Our home base is in the great city of Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.
