ReeToxA returns with a fire anthem "Footscray"

ReeToxA sprints beyond that whirl with a raw, loud, and utterly irresistible new single, "Footscray," a song that finds the line between grunge grit and Australian pub rock swagger, grabs you by the hand, then supercharges it with lightning. With this release, the artist veers off an exhilarating middle finger from the weightier, more serious tones of past singles, instead skipping all guns blazing into something more unhinged, mad, fun, and undeniably rock 'n' roll.

"Footscray" is a chaotic but eerily familiar love story. It's boy-meets-girl, but with a twist for today's open relationships, emotional turmoil, and the irresistible lure of a person who's not entirely yours, but you're in any way. That emotional messiness isn't caught in a mood of melancholy but of punchy, reckless abandon. It's all there in the scorching guitar riffs, in the thunderous drums, and rides itself out on the sort of bassline that coils itself around your spine and refuses to budge.

ReeToxA pulls no punches in a raw, conviction-filled style. The honesty of the performance has a lived-in feel that makes the narrative achingly personal but profoundly familiar. It can be about the excitement of falling even when you know there's no gentle landing. And for some reason, it makes you want to dance through the mayhem.

"Footscray" is the old-school rock energy, unapologetic here but refracted through an ultra-modern lens. It's thoughtful without being dated, messy, or spinning out of control. It's all there anthemic guitar solos, tight, rhythmic grooves, a story that you feel might have happened to you last weekend in a suburban dive bar

If ReeToxA was trying to shake things up and remind everyone that rock can still be wild and fun while conveying an important message, mission accomplished. "Footscray" is a feeling, a snapshot, and a mosh-pit anthem for anyone who's ever loved too aggressively and partied too long.
