Lonely Ghost Records (various artists)

On Hey, ily’s new record, the band wants you to walk away with at least this one takeaway: you must face the hurt head on, or it will continue to hurt forever. With that, the band’s sophomore effort Hey, I Loathe You! is a victory over pain, grief, and hate. The album was written in a two-and-a-half-year span, in which the group faced upsets, betrayals, and sudden changes.
