Hailing from Aalborg, Denmark, Koya has charged onto the Danish metal scene and quickly become infamous for their energetic live shows and indignant, take-no-prisoners attitude. A testament to this is their early participation in events such as the Danish '24 WOA Metal Battle Finals, Support Our Scene, Mono Goes Metal, Lasher Fest, When Copenhell Freezes Over '25, and others.
With a foundation in contemporary Danish post-hardcore, Koya combines the aggressive, fast-paced nature of hardcore with the crushing weight of sludge and atmospheric elements influenced by black metal and shoegaze, resulting in a captivating and dynamic sound.
Essentially, Koya captures what can best be described as a form of Scandinavian bleakness - a feeling of inherent cold and darkness akin to that of late autumn - although presented on stage with raised fists and that northern Danish charm.
Brace yourself for an auditory assault as Koya invites you to delve into their darkness.
