Coriky is an American punk rock band comprising Ian MacKaye (Minor Threat, Fugazi, The Evens), Joe Lally (Fugazi, The Messthetics), and Amy Farina (The Warmers, The Evens).

The band was formed in Washington, D.C., by MacKaye on vocals and guitar; Lally (MacKaye's former Fugazi bandmate) on bass and vocals, and Farina (MacKaye's collaborator in The Evens) on drums and vocals. The group's self-titled debut album, was released in 2020 and showed influences of The Evens and Fugazi.

According to the group, MacKaye, Lally, and Farina began making music together in 2015, not long after Lally returned to Washington, D.C., after living in Rome for several years. The group was kept under wraps until November 2018 when the trio, still without a name, performed what they called an "open practice" as part of a benefit for Loaves & Fishes, a Washington, D.C. organization that provides free meals for the homeless and economically under-served. In February 2020, Coriky released their first track, "Clean Kill" in advance of an anticipated album.

Although their self-titled debut album was originally set for release on March 27, 2020, the COVID-19 lockdown enacted in the United States during March, 2020 delayed its release until June 12, 2020, in part to accommodate independent record stores closed due to the pandemic.

The band previewed their album at a free show in D.C.'s St. Stephen and the Incarnation Episcopal Church on February 22, 2020.
