Koyo have dropped ‘You Hate Me’ ahead of their “no-frills” second album ‘Barely Here’
Their second record was produced by Jon Markson arrives via Pure Noise Records.
Long Island outfit Koyo have dropped a new track, 'You Hate Me', taken from their second album 'Barely Here'. The record lands on 8th May through Pure Noise Records and spans ten songs in just 28 minutes.
Jon Markson, who has previously worked with Drug Church, Drain, and The Story So Far, handled production, engineering, and mixing duties on the album. Guest spots come from Sammy Ciaramitaro of Drain and Marisa Shirar of Fleshwater.
Speaking about the band's approach to their second record, the band's Joey Chiaramonte said: "A lot of bands think their second album has to be this magnum opus epic that sews so many things together, and I think we'd actually taken more of that approach with our first LP. So with Barely Here we wanted to do the opposite of that trajectory–we wanted to refine our strengths instead of doing this purposeful departure. It's a snapshot of what our band is in its most no-frills, perfected form."
'Barely Here' features the following tracks: 'Barely Here', 'Jet Stream Wish', 'Saying Vs Meaning' (feat. Sammy Ciaramitaro), 'It Happens to the Best of Us', 'You Hate Me', 'Selden Mansions', 'Oxidize' (feat. Marisa Shirar), 'What I'm Worth', 'Pace and Loiter', and 'Irreversible'.
