bedsitter23Foe is a British buzz artist (21 year old Hannah Clark) that has been championed by Garbage.
It makes sense, though as she/they are garbage for 2012. A snotty self-assured, punkpop starlet (not unlike Shirley Manson) backed by the same type of electronic-synth-grunge-rock Garbage made famous.
I keep going back to the Garbage reference, but your take on Foe likely will mirror what tyou think of that band (either Foe is a sexy unique voice a la PJ Harvey or she's an overhyped pop starlet with better beats).
Personally, I am buying into some of the hype. I like her. Bad dream Hotline isn't as good as garbage at their best, but it's better than Garbage at their worst.
If Foe takes off for the big time (and it would seem likely), she could get some big time media overload, but for now, it's a sound I am really enjoying.
