Here is the first single from Foals' forthcoming album 'Total Life Forever'. The album is set to be released on May 10th. Apparently this album was inspired by lead singer Yanis' memory of seeing a dead dog floating in the sea.
The creepy vocals and almost nonexistent guitar build up to a huge chorus, the sound is far more mature and something very promising. In my opinion, this change has been made for the better, and I don't think it would be too far fetched to pencil Foals in as a candidate for best 2010 album. If it is...well you heard it here first.
Foals - Spanish Sahara
This whole scenario reminds me very much of The Horrors, whose comeback after their first album 'Strange House' was a surprise which ended up as one of the albums of 2010. Hopefully Foals have found themselves with this new sound and it will be here to stay. And in the wise words of Ezra Koening I leave you...'Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma?'
