Big jagged guitars, drawling melodies and glitching kick-drums.” – NME
“Grunge-pop harbinger FOE kicks and cusses her way through three minutes of slurring Sleater-Kinney-isms on this irresistible new single.”-  Q
“Sharp suited punkette who is lost, lonely and very talented.” – i-D
“Tyrant song’ reeks of rebellion.  It’s bolshy, and full of gusto.  It’s just so luscious.”–Notion
“Hot New Trash’ is your introduction to the new sound of the suburbs.” -  Artrocker
“We are exposed to a dark, twisting trip through ‘90s guitars that are buried under some brash and experimental walls of noise. Unique!” – Clash
“An exciting new talent” – Music Week 

‘Cold Hard Rock’ is the fuzzed up, anti fairy-tale from suburban punkette, FOE aka Hannah Louise Clark, set for release 9th January 2012- this will be her debut release on Vertigo Records.

Foe’s previous border-crossing offerings ‘Deep Water Heart Breaker’ and EP ‘Hot New Trash’ gave a glimpse into the wonderfully deranged world of a fancy dress loving loner from Fleet. 

Foe was born out of an alienated school experience, a love of history’s left of centre mavericks - Dahl, Lynch, Hitchcock, Zappa, PJ Harvey – and a chance meeting with a likeminded musical nomad, Entrepreneurs.

New single ‘Cold Hard Rock' - produced by Entrepreneurs and mixed by Dan Grech (The Vaccines, Howling Bells) - is a prime slice of Hammer-horror grunge pop about adultery, sinking feelings of being betrayed and overwhelming sadness, culminating in the lingering line - "sea's coming it's dragging me down".

Staying true to her 90’s DIY routes, Foe has produced a limited edition fanzine, this time with help from her friend Max Kinghorn-Mills (Wildeflower) which will be available at gigs, following on from the macabre tale of the Deep Water Heartbreaker.

After headlining a pulverising UK tour and playing coveted support slots for the likes of Mercury nominees Metronomy and German hard-core band Atari Teenage Riot, Foe will be taking to the road again in January.

This is unabashedly scuzzy and daring thrash rock-pop – introducing the darker side of 2012.
