Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Mercury Rising

It would be really irresponsible for us to suggest that Foxy Shazam are anything remotely along the lines of the second coming of Queen, as certain of our music crit brethren — and sister…en — have, in hyperbolic praise of the band’s excellent self-titled major-label debut. However, we defy you to listen and not be at least reminded of a similarly glorious strain of anthemic glam rock. Go ahead, try. We dare you. Like, maybe this Thursday, when the band drops by Club Metronome as part of a Spin magazine-sponsored tour that also includes cheeky Canadians Hollerado and hard-rockin’ headliners Free Energy.
