Our take

"Pronounced "folks," this is a new band from Gang of Four's Dave Allen and Menomena's Danny Seim, who make stoney, jammy, basement-session indie rock."
– Amie Street Editors
For fans of: Pavement, Gang of Four, Pixies

“Unusual vocal timbres, great atmospherics, interesting formal strategies, and, basically, a good jam. Hippies they may be, but urban ones with multi-effect processors.”

“It's technically spoken, but it has a very melodic tone to it. Easily the best track on the album, you can probably get away with just buying this one; it obliterates the others in quality. ”

“interesting track... looking forward to hearing more from Faux Hoax ”

“if you're a fan of dave allen's work as a member of the gang of four this is the joint to fire up first.”

“sounds like a trippy conversation that you might have with your brain. ”

Street Cred: 50 Rec's: 4
“This is the epitome of groove-oriented boho-folk cool: quirky monologue, candid recollections, rich analogue timbres, loose and spontaneous-ish instrumentation, and narrative with substance.”

“At once terribly bizarre and strangely entrancing, Faux Hoax's "Your Friends Will Carry You Home" operates as the title track to the album. The narrative contained in this song is so incredibly unexpected, like something that came out of your dreams and into your ears. ”
