Going Through the Emotions – Foxing at the Sinclair

Foxing Emily Gardner

Consider this my petition for emo legends Foxing to have a permanent residency at the Sinclair. On the last Sunday of October, the band celebrated yet another sold out show at the Cambridge venue. This time it was to promote their newest self-titled record. Opening the show was From Indian Lakes, who also had a new record to perform, and Rhode Island locals Gollylagging. Although Foxing came to play new music, the setlist took fans through the 13 year history of the group. Their sound has changed dramatically since their first album, The Albatross, but everything flowed together seamlessly. The peak of the night was when guitarist Eric Hudson started screaming the words to the most energetic track off of the new record, “Hell 99.” The crowd erupted and chanted along as the band flailed around the stage. During some of the slower songs, like the stripped down version of “Eiffel”, there were a few tears on cheeks in the audience. If there’s one thing Foxing can do perfectly, it’s put on an emotional whirlwind of a set.
