Ian MacKaye's new band Coriky announce debut album, share "Clean Kill"

Back in 2018, Ian MacKaye, his Fugazi bandmate Joe Lally, and his Evens bandmate Amy Farina debuted a new band on stage in DC, and they since revealed that the band is called Coriky and played a few other shows, and now they’re finally set to release their debut album. It’s self-titled and due March 27 via Dischord (pre-order), and the first single is opening track “Clean Kill.” It’s unmistakably the work of Ian MacKaye, probably closer to The Evens than to any of his other projects, but with a bit more of that Fugazi-esque grit in the mix. It’s a very cool first taste, and you can hear it for yourself below.

Here’s the band’s new bio:

Coriky is a band from Washington, D.C. Amy Farina plays drums. Joe Lally plays bass. Ian MacKaye plays guitar. All sing.

Formed in 2015, Coriky did not play their first show until 2018. They have recorded one album. They hope to tour.

We hope they tour too! Stay tuned.
