On this episode of Good Noise Podcast, I’m joined by Joel Birch from The Amity Affliction to talk about their album House of Cards. We dive into the emotion and intensity behind the record, exploring the themes that shape the album and how the band channels vulnerability and heaviness into their sound.

Joel shares insight into the writing process, the inspiration behind House of Cards, and how the album reflects both personal struggles and creative evolution. We also talk about balance between melody and aggression, artistic growth, and what this release represents for The Amity Affliction moving forward.
