The project received mixed reviews by the critics, which praised its sex-positive nature, while condemning Petras’ association with producer Dr. Luke who produced the EP in its entirety.

Foxes, Foxes - The Kick (Album), music, Musica

The Kick is Grammy winning artist Foxes highly-anticipated third album, it was written and recorded remotely via zoom during the height of the pandemic, offering a form of escapism for Foxes. Inspired by the desire for freedom that the world collectively shared over the last 18 months of lockdowns, the near-animalistic desperation to socialise, and a longing to dance again, Louisa naturally pivoted the sonics to feed that escapism and create a record that simultaneously feels close to her euphoric, dancefloor-filling pop roots that brought us hits like ‘Let Go For Tonight’, ‘Youth’ and ‘Body Talk’, while still feeling completely fresh. Unafraid of the art of the well-loved melancholic-banger, lyrically The Kick touches on themes of loss and heartbreak, narrating painful places and soundtracking new beginnings to create an album for the post-pandemic world and a summer of never leaving the party early.

The deluxe version of the album includes the tracks from Friends in the Corner EP which will be included on a second disc.

Tracklist:

01 – Sister Ray
02 – The Kick
03 – Growing on Me
04 – Potential
05 – Dance Magic
06 – Body Suit
07 – Absolute
08 – Two Kinds Of Silence
09 – Forgive Yourself
10 – Gentleman
11 – Sky Love
12 – Too Much Colour
