Yeah tbh when I skimmed a few songs on spotify they didn't catch my attention but I thought the live show was so fun I've been meaning to give them another shot
Was about to see what time Foxing was gonna go on and happily saw the show is sold out. I’m exhausted from a long weekend but would have felt something had I missed them if timing worked out. they’re playing a bar so could have been normal set times or super late.
They were really great at soda bar in SD. The NMG songs popped off. the venue is tiny and split down the middle with a bar was 100 degrees in there, made worse by the mask request but it was all worth it when Connor jumped into the bar during GameShark and fucking let loose
Revisited this last night. Definitely had less staying power overall compared to NMG and just wish they went a little more experimental especially after releasing SWTD first. They definitely made the album they set out to make though. Beacons, DDTM, Bialystok, and Cold Blooded go off. I actually really like At Least We Found the Floor now. Really cool tune and Connor sounds great on it.
Also the lyrics have really stuck out to me now. Where’s maybe the music on DDTM isn’t as experimental as I had hoped, Connor has some great vivid imagery in his lyrics
How ridiculous is it that we’ve still never met IRL? I just moved down to St. Louis hills where are you at these days? We’ve gotta link up lol
It’s pretty nuts haha I was just thinking that when I saw your post. Nice, like that area a lot. I’m over near Lafayette square right close to downtown these days
Newbury Comics exclusive /600 glow in the dark repress of Dealer for anyone that doesn’t already own that one https://www.newburycomics.com/products/foxing-dealer_exclusive_lp_glow probably the perfect “night album” but the usual disclaimers about gitd and sound quality apply
the only glow in the dark record I have is Somewhere City and I always thought it sounded fine...but maybe the other colorways would sound better idk
I didn’t heed the warning about glow in the dark variants on two different records and got bit twice - both sound like butt. Not sure why that is
I don't know anything besides seeing complaints occasionally on here and on discogs. I don't own any but if there's any record I'd 100% listen to with every light in my house turned off it's Dealer
I’ve done this with some Caspian and This Will Destroy You records. It’s nothing short of a vibe. I’ll have to do this with Dealer soon
