ForEach Loop
state of texas
If there’s one thing we need more of in 2025, it’s socially conscious / protest music from the State of Texas. Denton, TX alternative rockers ForEach Loop seem primed to deliver us just what the doctor ordered.
Simply put, this single kicks ass. This group always has some pretty great vocal ideas, and uses harmony and repetition to tremendous effect, and this is true on “State of Texas” as well.
There’s also just a wealth of awesome guitar work going on in this track. The rhythm guitar in the chorus has got Smashing Pumpkins-level weight to it and some blistering solos carry us out.
The final promo video for this single, available at the YouTube link on this page, adds a whole other layer to the track. It’s worth checking out.
If there’s a whole album of stuff like this coming, buckle up.
ForEach Loop
The Perils of Texas
ForEach()Loop is a Denton, TX indie rock outfit that makes a killer blend containing shades of 90’s alt rock, grunge, punk, and garage rock.
They’re out with The Perils of Texas, a gritty and catchy and blistering debut full-length album that feels a little too appropriate for landing on July 4, in a year when all of America seems to be collapsing into the same political and cultural sinkhole that is embodied in the subject of this album.
Among other elements, this record satisfies in the same way as an earlier release by (fellow Texans) Frogmouth - it sounds like the work of a real band. The chemistry is undeniable.
I had such a big smile on my face from the first seconds of “Texas Troubles (Are Blowing Me Away)”. It explodes out of the gate, quite flagrantly country but full of mischief. Like a punk band that fell through a wormhole and was forced to play in a Western saloon 100 years ago.
A joyful, sarcastic, kick-ass romp you’d be hard pressed not to tap your foot to, even for one of those goatee-and-Oakleys internet comment douchebags that would probably hate the lyrics.
This record is a hell of a statement, and a remarkable document of a great band, with a lot to say and a flair for how to say it.
