Paper Foxes - The Gallows, emotional post-punk and dark disco

Dark disco in "The Gallows" by Paper Foxes!


"The Gallows" by Paper Foxes is an intriguing song that goes into the dark disco and death disco sounds, beautifully blended with post-punk elements that create a haunting yet danceable track. The song features a driving bassline and rhythmic beats that are instantly infectious, set against a backdrop of eerie synths and sharp, angular guitar riffs. The vocals are delivered with a moody intensity, capturing the dark, emotive essence of the lyrics. Paper Foxes masterfully blend a melancholic atmosphere with an irresistible groove, making "The Gallows" a standout track that is both evocative and exhilarating.

The production of "The Gallows" is sleek, enhancing the track's hypnotic dance quality. The interplay between the pulsating beats and the somber, melodic undertones creates a dynamic tension. Echoes of classic post-punk influences are evident, yet Paper Foxes manage to carve out their own unique sound, blending nostalgia with a modern edge. The song's dark atmosphere conjures images of shadowy dance floors and late-night revelry, making it a perfect anthem for those who revel in the darker side of disco.

Paper Foxes says about "The Gallows": "Surrounded by the desolate beauty of the Sonoran Desert, Phoenix band Paper Foxes return with their dramatic single The Gallows. The release explores the complex textures of Post Punk, New Wave & 80s synth bands like Depeche Mode merged with the Gothic tones of Bauhaus. Moody & emotional, the band is not visiting the executioner but is breaking new ground with outstanding material after a short hiatus. Perfect for Dark & Gothic and Indie Arrivals, beat the hangman with Paper Foxes."

Hailing from Phoenix, AZ Paper Foxes is a young band with a danceable sound that blends the sun-drenched with sinister. They are known for their angular guitars and disco bass hooks. Their debut album “Popular Confessions” is a fall to the dark with polished-pop overtones. It marks the bands first work with legendary producer Bob Hoag (of Flying Blanket Studios, The Ataris, and Pollen) who helped refined their now signature sound. They are now working on their second studio album with an anticipated new single release and music video in late spring.

Since 2016 a string of EPs have earned them wide notoriety as well as appearances with the Wrecks, Dreamers, IDKHow but they found us, and many other national acts. They continue to garner radio play and press interest through the United States. Making quite the impression in 2019 with a debut album produced by the legendary Bob Hoag this band of new-romantics has a reputation for energetic and emotional live performances. Made up of CJ Jacobson (vocals, guitar), Patro Gaston (synths), Oliver Lemke (guitar), Robert Ciuca (bass) and Henri Bernard (drums) Paper Foxes are best known for their glassy synths and pulsing bass hooks. In 2019 Phoenix New Times wrote “Paper Foxes debut album is the best mashup of new-wave and disco since Blondie”. After securing licensing agreements with Netflix, MTV and E!TV, they have begun work on their sophomore release due in 2022.
