Circuit des Yeux signs to Matador for new album -io, shares first single "Dogma"
Circuit des Yeux, the project of Haley Fohr, has announced her sixth album -io - and first on Matador Records - alongside releasing the lead single "Dogma".
"Dogma" is the first outing from Circuit des Yeux's new record, and follows her 2018 cover of Catherine Ribeiro and Alpes' "Sœur De Race".
Fohr says of the new release, "Where there is faith there is violence. The story of civilisation is complicated and layered with dogmas. At each individual’s incentive lies both a beacon and an instinct. The fool follows the outer while the idiot chases her interior. Society is a necessary subversion of the self. It is through time that our quiet alarms grow with great intensity until emancipation through implosion or explosion become imminent."
-io will follow Circuit des Yeux's 2017 album Reaching For Indigo, and was recorded on tape at Chicago's Electrical Audio studio last autumn by Cooper Crain. The album was mixed by Marta Salogni (Bjork, Holly Herndon), while Fohr arranged and produced the record.
Fohr says of the album, "I was haunted by memories in the pandemic. As someone with PTSD, memories are all twisted up inside of me in a way that doesn't help my higher self. Making this album was once again an exercise of trying to relieve myself of some of that darkness in a way that music has always done for me."
