Indie-pop darling Chloe Moriondo has announced new album oyster, out March 28th via Public Consumption/Fueled By Ramen. Assembled with a close-knit team of cowriters and producers including Jonah Summerfield (Holly Humberstone, Tommy Lefroy), Chloe Kraemer (The Japanese House), AfterHrs, and more, oyster finds Moriondo pulling from all her musical palettes, delving into the depths of heartbreak and cataloging the process of surfacing braver, wiser, and ready to dive back in.
The news is heralded by new single “hate it” a delightfully creepy track that considers the blurred lines between love, hate, and obsession. With her signature macabre humor, Moriondo muses about what it’d be like to wear a stranger’s face to bed, or to “slip it over my head and rob a bank.” The track arrives alongside an official video, which finds the 22 year-old giving into the darkness as she loses her humanity both figuratively and literally.
“‘hate it’ encapsulates all the feelings of jealousy, hatred, and obsession that can come with a crush on someone unattainable,” Moriondo explains, “or yearning for a life that feels unattainable.”
She continues, “I’m so fucking ecstatic for this album to be out. I’ve been yearning to release it since its conception and I’m bursting at the shell trying not to leak it all now. It’s full of vulnerability, frivolous crushes, despair, parties, and 17 billion tons of salt water. The world is my oyster, and soon it will be yours too!"
Co-written with and produced by Chloe Kraemer (The Japanese House), the wistful, pulsing “shoreline” arrived in January to critical praise, with Billboard celebrating the track’s “...effortless metaphor, simple production and ... gorgeous vocal performance” and Consequence declaring, “‘shoreline’ is a bold and affecting turn from Moriondo, who seems to sharpen her songwriting with every release.” Clash praised the “radiant” track, while DIY hailed it “gentle electro-pop gem.
About Chloe Moriondo:
Hailed as “one of indie pop’s brightest stars” (Teen Vogue), Chloe Moriondo's 2022 album SUCKERPUNCH marked a bold leap forward from the understated indie-pop and jittery pop-punk of her 2021 offering, Blood Bunny. The idiosyncratic artist has racked up critical praise from The New York Times (Critic’s Pick), Billboard (2x “21 Under 21” honoree), NYLON, V Magazine, Consequence, UPROXX, PAPER, Alternative Press and more, with performances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Late Late Show with James Corden. Now, she begins her next chapter with new album oyster, out March 28th via Public Consumption/Fueled By Ramen.
