Long Island melodic hardcore / emo-punk upstarts Koyo recently announced their sophomore album, Barely Here, arriving May 8th via Pure Noise Records, and today they're back with another kinetic and crushing new single, "What I'm Worth."

Clocking in at ten songs in just 28 minutes, Barely Here is a lean blast of incredibly anthemic punk that packs the firecracker guts of The Movielife, the widescreen hooks of Taking Back Sunday, and the tuneful grit of Silent Majority—but more than anything it sounds like Koyo themselves. Lead single "Irreversible" highlighted the band's mastery of bouncy tempos and big melodies, and now "What I'm Worth" dives into darker waters with churning riffs and fiery vocals from frontman Joey Chiaramonte.

Watch the video for "What I'm Worth" below. This is another absolute banger from the Long Island powerhouse. Slow burning yet crushing, thick crunchy guitars, emotionally charged, a throwback to the early 2000s long island sound.
