The New Jersey band Fox Teeth released their single titled "Voicemail" today, and this track has a lot to say about the band’s growth and musical abilities. Fans of Fox Teeth will be able to notice the evolution that has occurred in their music to lead them to release this single.
One of the main things that display these changes is in the lyrical and vocal strength. This single pairs lyrics that are a clever play on the idea of a voicemail with the actual voicemail sound in the beginning as well as a more underlying theme that is well placed in the song.
The vocals on this song are reminiscent of a bit of a throwback style while still feeling unique and modern. This style has appealed to many different kinds of listeners which is what makes it stand out.
The instrumentals on this single also stand out. They are slow in a way that is soothing to listen to but isn't boring.
The sound pairs well with the overall vibe that the song is aiming for, and helps strengthen the message that ‘Voicemail’ is trying to give off. The track feels very melancholy but still upbeat, it is a nice mix between a laid back song and a faster track.
Additionally, the visuals of the single were a high point. The single artwork pairs well with the lyrics and track to make a very lonesome and longing feeling, while not being too down.
The tones of yellow are striking and go along with the track in the way that it is upbeat while still having this tone of sadness. Overall, this single is a very impressive and well thought out piece from Fox Teeth.
It has clever theming, which will be able to draw in new listeners, and yet it still appeals to avid listeners who have been following their musical journey and progress for some time. This single is one that will be able to appeal to multiple genres as well, which will also help it stand out in an array of music.
