Label: Hopeless
The fourth full length album from the inimitable Foxing, following on from 2018's hyper-critically acclaimed Nearer My God. Expansive, eclectic and genre-defying.
Draw Down the Moon wields an other worldly power that at times feels spiritual, and its creation took as much inspiration from religion as it did from magic and role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons. The album title itself is derived from Margot Adler’s ritual book, Drawing Down the Moon.
“I’ve been in a place in my life for a long time of deep resentment for religion,,” Murphy says, “but I felt like on this one we explored that idea of magic and ritual on a deeper level than just fiction. I value that so much now.”
While Draw Down the Moon’s celestial nature often leads it to sound like a record as large as the galaxy itself, it is, at its heart, about all of us on the ground level - the tiny specks floating around together.
