The album, recorded with producer Casey Bates (Chiodos, Heavy Heavy Low Low) takes their piano propelled songs that layer spastic hardcore noise atop fractured Soul inspired pop to a new level, one that emphasizes…..well….good times, tells vocalist Eric Nally. "The whole point of the album is to be a feel-good dance party. We stepped up our game while throwing our whole selves and personality quirks in it, making the album very centered and focused on our development." The songs are varied, and there are a few head scratchers thrown in the mix, tells Nally. "One song, Dangerous Man, is meant for the soundtrack of a Robin Hood film. Another song, Red Cape Diver, is about a bull fighter who is telling his family that he loves them before he goes off to work. But most of the songs are just about having a good time." The first single off of their record, and one of the biggest party-starters, Yes Yes Yes! is making its debut on Myspace this month. (more information on their MYSPACE.) Members Include: ---Eric Sean Nally (lead vocals) ---Loren Daniel Turner (lead guitarist) ---Daisy (bassist) ---Schuyler White (keyboards/piano) ---Joseph Halberstadt (drums) I saw Foxy Shazam open for The Fall of Troy earlier this year and I was very impressed. They are hilarious onstage and put on a fantastic show. While onstage, the lead singer ran across the stage like a dog, sang his own version of The Fresh Prince of BelAir, and ate lit cigarettes. Needless to say, they were a very entertaining band to watch. And, their music isn't half-bad either. They were also very nice guys. I met the drummer, keyboardist, and bassist, and they were super sweet and appreciative. They are currently about to go on tour with Senses Fail and I can't wait to see them again! I hope more people will be exposed to their inventive and unique music! |
