Legendary independent, New York-based rock label Equal Vision Records (in partnership with Rude Records) and Kaonashi are excited to announce the Friday, June 6 release of ‘I Want To Go Home.’.

The blistering follow-up to ‘Dear Lemon House, You Ruined Me: Senior Year’ and the second part of a concept series that was taken through three additional companion EPs, the 13-track ‘I Want To Go Home.’ finds the band taking their metallic and melodic tendencies to deafening new heights that defy categorization, ultimately bringing this powerful and suspenseful saga to a close. Watch the music video for the album’s new single, ‘When I Say’ directed by Vic Antonio. Kaonashi will embark on an EU/UK tour this year with God Complex. Kaonashi’s music is difficult to define. It combines death metal growling, unexpected time changes and technical flourishes that bring to mind nineties metalcore legends like Coalesce and The Dillinger Escape Plan. However, there isn’t anything dated about the band’s sound — and in fact, there’s something inherently progressive about the Philadelphia trio’s unique brand of music. Although the act was started by vocalist Peter Rono and guitarist/vocalist Alex Hallquist in 2012, things really solidified for Kaonashi in 2016 when drummer Pao joined the band and they started touring all over the country, eventually gaining the interest of Equal Vision Records who released the band’s sophomore full-length ‘Dear Lemon House, You Ruined Me: Senior Year’ in 2021.
