Product Overview
FOXING - NEARER MY GOD (2LP) St. Louisâ Foxing will release their highly-anticipated third album, ÓNearer My GodÝ, on August 10. Created over the course of nearly 3 years, ÓNearer My GodÝ 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). Foxingâs discography, including their 2013 breakout debut ÓThe AlbatrossÝ , is one that can be slow-moving but with purpose. ÓNearer My GodÝ took the band nearly three years to complete, but that time was well-spent re-focusing on the future of Foxing. What preceded ÓNearer My God s newfound energy was the emotional and physical fatigue that came from years of their relentless drive. Their last album, 2016âs ÓDealerÝ, helped push the St. Louis group to entirely new heights; Pitchfork instantly dubbed it Óan artistic triumph,Ý it debuted at #3 on Billboardâs 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; ÓNearer My GodÝ feels like an entirely refreshed Foxing, even if they never really needed much refreshing in the first place. TRACKLISTING LP 1 SIDE A 1.
