Born in the mile-high city of Denver, FOX LAKE bring an elevated and energetic sound to the heavy music scene. The band formed back in 2017 as friends jamming in their basement, looking to branch out from the standard metalcore sound by incorporating elements of their favorite genres — hardcore, hip-hop, and rock 'n' roll. FOX LAKE continue to level up by delivering a musical brass-knuckled punch to the face that lands on anyone in their proximity.
The band will unleash NEW WORLD HEAT on Friday, August 1 via MNRK HEAVY. Pre-order it here or here.
Fox Lake just dropped the "REAL FAST" video. Watch it below.
"'Real Fast' is the last single before the album release because we wanted to keep people guessing," Fox Lake say. "There are songs on the album that might have more memorable hooks, bigger features, or a longer run time, but we collectively agreed that we wanted to put out something that would hit like an uppercut and keep people curious about what the rest of the record had to offer."
Furthermore, the band states, "From a songwriting perspective, this was a rare case where the song was written and conceptualized using the sample as the blueprint rather than adding a sample to an otherwise finished song. We wanted to write something 'real fast' so the listener would never know what hit them."
Uppercut incoming...
