Knee High Fox released their first record, Black Widow, in 2012 and have been touring extensively ever since. It would be hard to know where they have found the time to record, three more records and two EP’s since, but they did. I think they are Vampires without the “day” sleep requirement.
The latest and greatest from the band is the much anticipated, Jawbreaker. This is techno/rock/pop/dance music, if I had to describe it. Some writers have obscure titles and lyrics, some tell a story or make a point, these are definitely theme-based lyrics with powerful guitars, a strong rhythm section, keys, and whatever else has been sprinkled on top.
They are officially on the map! Notably they have toured with the likes of Marilyn Manson, Theory of a Deadman, Powerman 5000,etc.
As I listen to the record, I felt more and more like I was in a Coachella or in a Lollapalooza type situation. As her lyric’s dance on the edge of porn, Krys Fox, may leave you feeling a little off after a song or two, for enjoying the guilty pleasures of the tunes.
The tracks are as follows:
Witch
These Girls
Relapse
Jawbreaker
American Beauty
Ladylike
Peekhole
Lovefool
They have a reputation for putting on one heck of an entertaining live performance. I have yet to witness one myself, but watching some recent footage of the band, they appear to uphold that reputation. I might add here live was a bit more rocking than raving.
At any rate check it out for yourselves.
Current lineup
Krys Fox – vox

All the best,
