Fox Lake‘s “Real Fast” music video received its online premiere today, July 29th, making its way out just ahead of this Friday’s (August 01st) release of their sophomore album “New World Heat“. The Denver, CO-based nü-metalcore band had the following to say about this final advance track:
“‘Real Fast‘ is the last single before the album release because we wanted to keep people guessing. There are songs on the album that might have more memorable hooks, bigger features, or a longer run time, but we collectively agreed that we wanted to put out something that would hit like an uppercut and keep people curious about what the rest of the record had to offer.
From a songwriting perspective, this was a rare case where the song was written and conceptualized using the sample as the blueprint rather than adding a sample to an otherwise finished song. We wanted to write something ‘real fast’ so the listener would never know what hit them.”
Today also found the band being announced as support on Greyhaven‘s fall headlining run. You can catch Fox Lake out on the road at the following shows:
