Foxing - Nearer My God (August 10, 2018) Album • Page 49

also the hooks on dealer took a minute to set in, so I would give it a couple more listens.

 

That’s why I said the hooks aren’t the album’s primary strength and it won’t be an album I gravitate to for hooks, never said it doesn’t have them lol

 

the end of bastardizer is what’s in my head the most. I love Eric’s vocals so much right there

 

The bastardizer, the patron saint, of disconnection, of feel no shame, you leave a son, who has your name, when you’re finally gone, he’ll be ok

This part for me

 

You're over iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTT

CHILLS EVERY FUCKING TIME

 

don't see many people talking about Trapped in Dillard's but it's a real highlight.

 

heartbeats -> trapped in dillard's -> bastardizer might be the best three song stretch on here.

 

those electronic flourishes sure are nice

 

Genre tags are kind of pointless but would saying this album is indie rock/art rock be accurate? Asking for a friend.

 

EMU

 

Art rock is what I would call it

 

I need to figure out which Dillard’s he’s singing about assuming it’s one in stl

 

I keep seeing Dilbert so I think that song is about Dilbert

 

I keep seeing billiards so I think that song's about balls

 

Yeah Trapped in Dillard’s is really cool

 

God I’m so sorry hahah

 

five cups. oh boy this is dope

 

I REALLY like to think its the Chesterfield mall. That makes the most sense to me, the place is an absolute ghost town, but I don't think he lived very close to there.

 

haha i picture Chesterfield mall every single time i listen to it. that was my go to up until i moved 8 years ago and it was deserted.

 

I go out to STL pretty often to visit my girlfriends family and Chesterfield mall was my first thought also haha.

 

It’s really wild how quickly that place went downhill. That was THE place to be in high school. I spent a lot of time acting way cooler than I actually was and spending 90% of my paychecks at Hot Topic lol good times

 

haha for real, the outlets just killed it i guess. i was in a wedding in May and had to pick a tux from Jos A. Banks in there and i couldnt believe it. my fiance walked around in there and counted like 12 stores open or some shit while i tried the tux.

 

Yeah seriously

 

not sure i'm worthy of this album goddamn foxing

 

@Drew Beringer I know you said the tour variant was red haze /500 but I'm unclear as to whether that's for the UK/EU run or for the US/CA run. Or both. In any case they definitely have copies with them, I'd be surprised if some coke bottle clear /1000 wax didn't make an appearance also.
