FOX LAKE makes a comeback with “Freestyle” featuring Avoid and announces new music.
Denver’s native Fox Lake has just premiered the music video for “Freestyle,” a lively track featuring Avoid, as they announce their upcoming album New World Heat, set to release on August 1 via MNRK Heavy.
The band has been on the cutting edge of music since 2017, blending metalcore with elements of hip-hop, hardcore punk, and classic rock ‘n’ roll. Their latest release, “Freestyle,” stays true to their signature style – rhythmic and rebellious, directly challenging any preconceived notions about their sound.
Fox Lake isn’t interested in seeking approval. In their announcement, they boldly declare, “Zero. F**ks. Given.” The edgy animated visuals accompanying the song reinforce this sentiment, exuding a slick and aggressive energy that refuses to be tamed. Their music isn’t about conformity; it’s about making a bold statement on their own terms.
With New World Heat, the band promises to deliver their most authentic work to date. This album embodies a scorched-earth approach to both music and mindset. According to Fox Lake, the central theme of the album revolves around the idea of burning down the past to pave the way for a fresh start. It is about the internal struggle between who you currently are and who you aspire to become, as well as the conflict between the reality you exist in and the ideal world you envision.
The band’s creative process for this record was a deliberate act of shedding limitations and expectations. They set out with a singular objective – to sound like Fox Lake, unencumbered by preconceived notions. The result? A sound that is described by the band as “Faster, heavier, groovier, and catchier than ever before.”
Beyond genre labels like nu-metal or hardcore, Fox Lake is focused on ensuring that their distinctive sound is instantly recognizable to listeners, regardless of the category. Their forthcoming album features exciting collaborations with Mugshot on “For the Love of the Game,” Silent Planet on “Headshot,” and Eyes of Salt on “Gut Check,” showcasing the band’s collaborative spirit and commitment to creating impactful music that resonates with their audience.
Once New World Heat hits the shelves, fans can anticipate an extensive touring schedule from Fox Lake. Their dedication to bringing their music to live audiences highlights their passion for connecting with fans and sharing their electrifying sound on stage.
