Canadian indie-rock act King of Foxes crafts lively offering "Doomed to Repeat," built on infectious guitar melodies, lush piano chords and groovy beats. The catchy soundscape swirls around vocalist and guitarist Olivia Street’s soaring vocals as evocative song-writing explores self-destructive tendencies.
Inspired by the all-too-relatable feeling of being drawn to repeating past mistakes, the track breaks down the allure of things that are bad for us as the singer-songwriter reminds us of the oft-repeated phrase about letting go of "all the things which no longer serve you."
Admitting that this is easier said than done, Street’s brand of uplifting yet introspective indie-rock gives us hope that we can find our way out of these stick situations as long as we accept and embrace the reality that something needs to give in order for things to improve.
Wrapped up in steady rhythms and dreamy vocals King Of Foxes music has developed as a blend of lively pop and hook-laden rock, making for a musical journey that’s mellow yet intriguing. Having established a place in indie-rock with two previous critically acclaimed albums, King of Foxes makes another foray into intricate indie-rock with "Doomed to Repeat," driven by storytelling and sonics that are delicate but empowering.
