As an avid watcher of the Edinburgh music scene, I feel like I have been waiting for the debut album by Jesus H. Foxx perhaps even longer than the eagleowl one (though I believe that’s due soon).
Song, By Toad Records released their fine six track EP Matter back in 2009, and as Toad Supremo Matthew Young says, ‘their debut album has been, they have assured me, mere weeks away from completion. And two and a half years later, here it is.’
Out very, very soon (can’t see a release date but it’s soon), and entitled Endless Knocking, this is the first track to be made available as a free download, the rather fine ‘So Much Water.’
The album tracklisting, by the way is:
The Reins, Quick
So the Wind Won’t…
Permanent Defeat
Elegy For the Good
Twins
Half the Man You Were
This is Not a Rental Car
So Much Water
Twins (reprise)
J+J
Paris
