Chattanooga, TN — Post-Hadcore band, FieldHockey, are sharing their vivacious new track, “Common Tope” on May 16. The track follows swiftly behind since the band’s newly released single, “Taxes On Taxidermy.”

FieldHockey creates a new dynamic with “Common Trope.” The track exudes an upbeat and boisterous energy. The band drapes the song in poppy melodies and stand-out clean vocals that contrast against the peppering of screams as the song plays-out.

““”Common Trope” was built from the bones of an old, nearly forgotten Fieldhockey track—reshaped over years of burnout, remorse, overthinking, and wasted time. The instrumental felt so fun and bouncy that it called for just a touch of self-aware cynicism. After all, we’ve all heard it before: there’s never enough time. But what happens when you actually have time? You procrastinate, of course. At this point in my life, I’ve pretty much mastered the art. Never get your hopes up, kid—just learn how to waste your time, and you’ll be fine.” – FieldHockey

WHAT THE PUCK IS FIELDHOCKEY?!?!?

Post-Hardcore heavy hitters from scenic city Chattanooga, TN. FieldHockey began as a pop-punk project back in 2019. Enon Harris had just been let go from the Alt-Prog metal group “Ten-Year Flood” with guitarist Michael Avakian and bassist Joey Scruggs. Head up, he went in search of another creative outlet and found the early makings of FieldHockey with drummer Brad Moss and bassist Justin White. In need of guitar, Enon recruited ex-bandmate Joseph Scruggs and FieldHockey was a go!

Under this lineup, they released a demo with Noisy Cricket studios and 7 singles with Breaker 17 studios. For the next two years FieldHockey played countless packed out events, including an opening slot for The Funeral Portrait, known for their billboard #1 hit song “Suffocate City”. Other performances include a show with the legendary Wine Lips at JJ’s Bohemia and Valley Vibes Music and Arts festival (multiple years) with over 800 fans in attendance.

In 2022, struggles within the band lead to the loss of guitarist Joey Scruggs and an indefinite hiatus. Finally, in October of 2023 the spark was relit with the addition of two new members. Michael Avakian and Jake Hixson joined the group sharing the position of co-lead guitar.

With new members came a new direction. These new guitarists worked to maintain the punk rock essence of the band but also brought a natural metal flair into the mix. This resulted in a re-establishment as a Post-Hardcore powerhouse.

June 1st, 2024. FieldHockey released their first single with todays line up “Ecdysis”. It took longtime fans by surprise with it’s fresh aggressive approach, earworm chorus and earth moving breakdown.
