To call Pallbearer a ‘cult sensation’ may be a stretch of the imagination, but they aren’t far off.

LIVE: Foxing / Fog Lake @ The Scala, London

Foxing are one of the most exceptional live bands around at the moment. The St. Louis emo band don’t just lean on their passionate fanbase or the emotional levity of their music either. Somehow, they continue to push boundaries both sonically and artistically, and tonight, the last time they will grace a London
