Foals - Holy Fire

Will listen. I like their first better than their second so I'm not setting my expectations too high.

 

I would rate their second as one of the best albums of the last decade...

‘Holy Fire’ will land on British shores on Feb 11th 2013.

 

You’ll be able to pre-order a copy of the album (case you forget) on iTunes from Nov 5th, upon which time you’ll get ‘Inhaler’ straight away.

Without knowing much (or anything) about this band I thought this band were usual NME fodder? Boring mainstream indie wank? In otherwords a bit like Coldplay lol.

 

Am I wrong?

totally wrong. i thought the same thing. i used to buy nme (mostly for the crossword) but even when i lost interest in most of the bands they still covered a few decent ones. foals resurrected my interest in guitar music and song

how do you embed vids now?

 

Lol, I like one of the top comments on the page: "They finally became Talking Heads".

 

I can hear it, and that's not a bad thing. Song sounds upbeat, I like the general direction after a quick scrub through.

Is there 2 threads for this?



guess not. anyway after avoiding anything off the new album I finally heard inhaler and took an instance dislike. 3rd listen is no better. shouty and the groove is like a weak foals cover band. shame. i hate you mcgriff

surprised this hasn't leaked yet either. only 5 more days, but still.



a friend heard it on kexp radio he he didnt have many nice things to say about it, which shocks me because the 2 tracks i heard sounded cool to me.

Well done Jules for ressurecting this thread, its something I have been meaning to do myself because I've heard 2 tracks off this new album as well (probably the same 2 tracks as you) and they are stunning.

 

If the album is as good as those two, then I predict it will be massive. And Foals will become household names.
