Year: 2019

Foxing recently released their highly-anticipated third album, Nearer My God, on August 10th via Triple Crown/Cooking Vinyl Australia. Created over the course of nearly 3 years, Nearer My God was produced by Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie, The Decemberists) and Foxing guitarist and songwriter Eric Hudson, with help from Joe Reinhart (Hop Along, Modern Baseball).

Once firmly planted in emo’s twinkling moods, Foxing now stretches out to soaring heights. All thundering bass and sirens of guitar strings, “Nearer My God” is something akin to David Bowie‘s “Heroes” (an acknowledged influence on this record).

Formed in 2003 when Oliver Ackermann offered to drum for a friend’s band but by the end of the first practice Ackermann had switched to guitar and vocals and APTBS was born.

Quickly garnering acclaim from their stunning performances with Brian Jonestown Massacre, it has been the band’s increasingly chaotic live performances that built their legion of fans and seen them applauded as the revival of “the ominous, feedback-drenched drones of the 1980s” The New York Times.
