Background[edit]
Infinite Joy was announced simultaneously with the release of the promotional single "Living or Dying" on November 2, 2023. In a press release, Bad Suns frontman Christo Bowman stated that the songs on the EP were a reflection of "an oceanic scope of emotions which colored the last year of my life", specifically citing his battle with alcohol abuse and subsequently becoming clean in October 2022, self-describing the aftermath as him "experiencing an entire ten years' worth of growth" within "a matter of months".[1]

The first promotional single from the EP, "Living or Dying", was released on November 2, 2023.[2] mxdwn wrote that the song "captures the essence of Bad Suns' signature sound with its blend of catchy hooks and introspective storytelling."[3]
