“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.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
