Foxes - The Kick

We’ve been on the Foxes bandwagon since the release of “White Coats” a near decade ago. And it’s been a real treat watching her career grow and evolve from that point to now. Throughout that stretch, Louisa Rose Allen has seemingly explored every nook and cranny of the pop genre - and one of our favorites off her brand new LP The Kick is the ultimate testament to that statement. The title track “The Kick” features a smooth blend of disco, modern pop, and 80s nostalgia - kind of how The 1975 have so meticulously perfected that same distinct sound. It’s an undeniably fun and superficial dance tune that, at the same time, manages to demonstrate a considerable amount of substance of soul. The Kick currently stands atop our list of favorite pop records of 2022 - and while you’re at it, we strongly suggest you check out another one of our favorites from 2021, “Kathleen,” off her excellent Friends In The Corner EP.
