Foxing - Heartbeats

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Never the taste of fear
You got left in the fine print
The font was serif'd and tasteless
It was slanted and Latin to death
They Said “Come on and get off of the bridge
And we can take the cameras down”
When all you really want is somewhere between here and the ground

{Chorus}
You are not in love
You are not in love
You are not in love
So stop playing along

{Verse 2}
They found the fountain of youth
Why would they strike the cameras now?
The malaise set in here
And no ones making any sound
They said “Come on tell us everything”
From the gallows
A Penitent
Begging forgiveness
They told you instead:
"Pull that rat heart out of your chest
It doesn't mean anything to us now”

{Chorus}
You are not in love
You are not in love
You are not in love
So stop playing along
So stop playing along

{Bridge}
(Your heart beats with us now)

{Chorus}
You are not in love
You are not in love
You are not in love
So stop playing along
Along

Biography

edit bio

Foxing is an eminent presence in the indie music scene, hailing from St. Louis, Missouri. Often veering into alternative and math-rock territories, the band has uniquely characterized their sound as "post-good." The ensemble consists of the talented musicians Conor Murphy, Josh Coll, Ricky Sampson, Jon Hellwig, and Eric Hudson. Although in December 2017, fans felt a poignant shift when founding member and bass guitarist Josh Coll parted ways with the band to delve into the realm of filmmaking.

The band's journey in the music world began to take shape in 2012 with the release of an EP entitled "Old Songs." Demonstrating their collaborative spirit, Foxing expanded their discography in 2013 with two split EPs. One was a creative intertwinement with Japanese Breakfast, a solo musical project of Michelle Zauner, and the other was in conjunction with Send Away Stranger, carving out a unique sound space in the indie music tapestry.

November 12, 2013, marked a significant milestone for Foxing with the release of their first full-length album, "The Albatross," which solidified their place in the indie music world. Continuing their musical expedition, "Dealer," their second record, graced the ears of their eager audience on October 30, 2015. Foxing continued to evolve and challenge the bounds of their genre with their third record, "Nearer My God," which was unveiled on August 10, 2018.

Each record unfolds a new chapter in Foxing's artistic saga, drawing listeners into intimate lyrical narratives and complex soundscapes. With each strum, beat, and melody, Foxing pens their biography, defined by poignant exits, prodigious collaborations, and a relentless pursuit to create music that resonates beyond the conventional limits of genre labels.
