Direct from Southern California’s beautiful San Fernando Valley, Cosmic Joke is back with a new EP, Forced Perspective, co-released by Triple B Records and HardLore Records.

Recorded at The Pit Recording Studio in Sunland, CA in September of 2024, and produced, engineered and mixed by Taylor Young, the EP consists of four original tracks and one incredible cover. Forced Perspective pushes the band’s established fast and furious sound into more aggressive territory as they continue on a quest to bridge the gap between the gritty authenticity of 80s and 90s Los Angeles hardcore with the melodic harmonies and catchy hooks of SoCal skate punk, a masterful progression into unfamiliar territory while remaining true to their roots, both musical and geographic. 

As an added bonus, the first pressing vinyl version is b-sided with five additional tracks from the Welcome to L.A. EP released in February, 2025. 

Side A: Forced Perspective EP

  1. Five Years Later
  2. Forced Perspective
  3. Quid Pro Quo
  4. Complex Character Development
  5. Psycho Killer (Talking Heads)

 

Side B: Welcome to L.A. EP

  1. We’re Only Gonna Die (Bad Religion)
  2. Los Angeles (X)
  3. L.A. Girl (Adolescents)
  4. Bloodstains (Agent Orange)
  5. Cosmic Joke
