It is as if you took Paul Baribeau, teamAWESOME!, and ska music with a dash of politics and tossed it into a one giant music whirlpool; this would be Fox Paws. They have a messiness about them is charming and infectious. Standout tracks include the opener “Baribeau” which is an homage to our big hearted bearded friend from Michigan. I like the song because it doesn’t try to copy a Paul Baribeau song, rather, it captures the spirit of his songs whilst being true to Fox Paws own hodgepodge style. All you need to know about “Arcadio” is that they do the trumpets with their voices and not since “Lady Madonna” has doing that been as much fun. “Rejoice!” is a great song that I can’t even describe, but does that weird radio voice effect that really fits with its anti-war themes - Foggy Ruins of Time
