Foxtails Brigade - 'Slave'
Foxtails Brigade release spooktastic indie rock to soundtrack your Hallows Eve!
’Slave’ opens playfully with sinister synth and a pummeling drum rhythm setting a thrilling tone from the offset. Foxtails front-girl Laura Weinbach’s vocal comes in with a chilling sense of despondency, hitting home the message, we’re all slaves “until the grave that sets you free”.
In terms of sonic influences, Foxtails Brigade channel a dark yet hooky synth pop sound that reminded me a lot of Depeche Mode’s ethos. ‘Slave’ pummels forward with chiming intensity as tight crisp guitar lines and drums coil around eerie synth layers. A compelling track with a doomed heart that will leave you feeling thoroughly haunted.
