Fox Lake Premiere New Single & Music Video "Pure Adrenaline" From Upcoming New Album "New World Heat"

Denver, CO-based nü-metalcore outfit Fox Lake have announced an August 1st release date for their sophomore album, “New World Heat,” which will arrive via MNRK Heavy. Alongside the announcement, the band have dropped a new single, “Pure Adrenaline,” accompanied by an Austin Voldseth-directed music video.

Commenting on the track, the band stated:

“Even though ‘Pure Adrenaline‘ didn’t come together until the latter half of the recording process for the album, most of the ingredients existed as far back as 2021. The majority of the instrumental demo was written years ago, and the lyrics and energy were conceptualized in our first few conversations about what we wanted to bring to this album.

We all came together and unanimously agreed that we wanted the new songs to be faster, more visceral, more concrete, and most importantly, all gas, no brakes. Pure f**king adrenaline.”

Speaking on the overarching theme of “New World Heat,” Fox Lake explained:

“The basic concept of the album is about burning things down in order to restart. It’s about who you are versus who you want to be. The world you live in versus the world you want to live in. It takes guts to strip everything away and take a hard, honest look at your life and the world around you.

Everyone has things that hold them down and things that seem to hold their reality in place. Habits, social circles, vices, beliefs, political systems, traumas, etc. Those things will be different for everyone. But the one constant is that action begets action and inaction begets inaction. You either drown in complacency or burn parts of yourself away to create a better world. We all have a choice. Musically, we felt like this concept fit perfectly with where we were at. We all have different inspirations that we want to bring into Fox Lake. It can be tricky to mesh together all the genres that we’re inspired by while still having an original sound.

So, for this record, we burned down the limitations we had previously put on ourselves and restarted our writing process with a singular goal — to sound like Fox Lake. The end result is an album that we’re extremely excited about and that feels very authentic to us. The music is faster, heavier, groovier, and catchier than ever before. It’s a new sound for a new world. Everyone is going to have different opinions on whether the band is more hardcore, nu-metal, rock, or metalcore. But everyone’s gonna know it’s Fox Lake.”
