Foxhole is a four-piece alternative rock band from the South West, England. Their first EP ‘In Case of Inspiration, Pick Up’ was released in 2021 and sent shockwaves through the local scene. After a line-up change at the end of 2021, the band welcomed Andy Obeyesekere on lead guitar and Mitch Strauss on bass. They shortly released their second EP titled ‘Brainstorm’ in May of 2023 and with their three night EP launch across three venues with seven bands across as support, they solidified their name in the local scene as a notable up and coming band in the South West. Their tight live energy has converted many since their inception. A unique blend of indie, mid-west emo, post-punk and grunge make for a heavy-hitting wall of sound, with plenty of riffs and sudden chaos when you least expect it.
Following the success of recent single ‘Gold’ whcih surpassed all expectations from the band and increased their visibility worldwide, the band are re-releasing a couple of earlier singles kicking off with ‘Chasing Songs’ from the aforementioned debut EP ‘In Case of Inspiration, Pick Up’.
it’s a meta song about feeling uninspired and struggling to write a song but pushing through the writer’s block and forcing it all the same. Using metaphor and simile to capture the ire and frustration of writer’s block with many of the lyrics encapsulating James’s desire to write a song but struggling to.” – Foxhole
The song was written in 2021
and recorded at The Workshop in Plymouth.
