Foxing release details on upcoming album, stream "The Magdalene"

August 27, 2015

Following a recent tease, St. Louis quintet Foxing have officially released details regarding their forthcoming full-length follow-up to their 2013 debut, The Albatross. Titled Dealer, the band's newest effort features 11 tracks and will be released on October 30 through Triple Crown Records. Pre-orders for the album are available now.

Today, the band has teamed up with NPR to stream Dealer's lead single, titled “The Magdalene.” Of the song, frontman Conor Murphy tells NPR he was raised in Catholic school and explains, “When I lost my virginity, I felt like it was less about love and more about sin. I have really never let go of or dealt with that guilt, which made it dark to write about. I think of 'The Magdalene' as a retrospective diary entry after losing my virginity.” Bassist and backing vocalist Josh Coll adds, “For my contribution to 'The Magdalene,' I wanted to touch upon something I felt was fairly universal for people who were raised in the church — the idea that physical intimacy can so easily be clouded or obscured by this internal fear that spirits are in the room witnessing 'sin' in action,”

You can stream “The Magdalene” below where you'll also find Dealer's cover art and track listing. This fall, you can catch Foxing on a co-headlining tour with The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die. Those dates can be found below as well.
