Nearer My God (Limited Edition Gold w/Bone White Splatter Vinyl)
Limited Edition Gold w/Bone White Splatter Vinyl!
St. Louis’ Foxing will release their highly-anticipated third album, ‘Nearer My God.’
Created over the course of nearly 3 years, ‘Nearer My God’ was by Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie, The Decemberists) and Foxing guitarist and songwriter Eric Hudson, with help from Joe Reinhart (Hop Along, Modern Baseball).
Foxing’s discography, including their 2013 breakout debut ‘The Albatross,’ is one that can be slow-moving but with purpose. ‘Nearer My God’ took the band nearly three years to complete, but that time was well-spent re-focusing on the future of Foxing.
What preceded ‘Nearer My God’s newfound energy was the emotional and physical fatigue that came from years of their relentless drive. Their last album, 2016’s ‘Dealer,’ helped push the St. Louis group to entirely new heights; Pitchfork instantly dubbed it “an artistic triumph,” it debuted at #3 on Billboard’s best-selling vinyl chart, and the band spent nearly 2 years off and on the road in support of it.
The patience pays off, though; ‘Nearer My God’ feels like an entirely refreshed Foxing, even if they never really needed much refreshing in the first place.
