Work is in progress for a new album from Illusion of Joy. Entitled The Forever Syndrome, the album is expected to be ready for release this winter. Currently, seven songs (in various stages of completion) have been recorded and are expected to be included on The Forever Syndrome. This will be Illusion of Joy’s third full-length album, following-up last year’s release, Division. This will also be the first Illusion of Joy album recorded completely in Seth Warren’s home studio (also known as his apartment). Thus far The Forever Syndrome is a solo effort, although future collaboration(s) on certain songs has not been ruled out.
