S.18 E.06 - Nathan Johnson of Fox Lake
Send us Fan Mail “We burned down the limitations we had previously put on ourselves and restarted our writing process with a singular goal — to sound like Fox Lake.” ALL GAS NO BRAKES. We welcome Nathan Johnson , frontman of Colorado-based hardcore outfit Fox Lake , to IUF. With their second full-length album New World Heat , the band leans into a raw, genre-blending sound that fuses heavy grooves, hip-hop influences, and unapologetic energy. Emphasis on the unapologetic. We dive into the band’s early days, the growing Denver music scene, and how Fox Lake evolved from a side project into a full-time force. Now signed to MNRK Heavy and gearing up for their first headlining tour this fall, Fox Lake are proving they’re ready for the spotlight. Nathan also shares a more personal side—his loyalty to Colorado sports, especially his hometown team, the Avalanche , who fuel his competitive spirit both on and off stage. This topic was too fun to cover. New World Heat captures a band stepping fully into their identity, and it’s one of the most exciting heavy releases of the year. Now streaming worldwide via MNRK Heavy.
