40 oz. to Fresno is the sixth studio album by American rock band Joyce Manor, released on June 10, 2022, by Epitaph Records. For the album, the band reunited with veteran producer Rob Schnapf, who last worked with the band on 2016's Cody. The album was written and recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic and features drummer Tony Thaxton of Motion City Soundtrack. The band drew inspiration from their early touring experiences, and the album showcases their signature concise, melodic pop-punk sound with themes of nostalgia and life on the road. The record also includes a cover of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark's "Souvenir". The album’s title references Sublime's 40 oz. to Freedom, with "Fresno" emerging from an accidental text autocorrect, and its cover features a photograph by longtime collaborator Dan Monick. Upon release, critics praised 40 oz. to Fresno for its catchy songwriting, compact structure, and energetic delivery.
