Likely Looks: Foals - Cassius

The first single from Foals from their soon to be released debut album "Antidotes" sees the band flooded by hanging hearts and destroyed flowers.

What can you do with hearts and flowers...? You'll just have to watch the video.

Foals Play The Silent Barn

Last night, Foals basically reminded me why I was so blown away when I saw them last year at SXSW. The energy was incredible, the band sounded amazing and somehow a small house in Brooklyn turned into an all out pogo-a-thon.

They played quite a few tracks from their upcoming release "Antidotes" (which just leaked...eek) and for about an hour I was in complete and total heaven.

If you haven't listened to Foals yet you honestly don't know what you are missing...this is the band of 2008.

Likely Looks: Foals - Mathletics

By now, you should all know how I feel about Foals. If you don't then I love them to pieces and they are one of my favorite bands of 2007.

I've always said they are the next Bloc Party (not that they sound like it but they are that good that they can turn INTO it)

Here is the new video for their song "Mathletics":



As for a US release, this is going to sound really weird BUT they were on my plane to London the other week (their name was on their gear, OK!??)so hopefully they are in talks!

Enjoy xx

Everyone's Talking About...FOALS

...well maybe just me but honestly its all I've been listening to. Foals are a 5 piece from the UK (where else?!) that make the most brilliant stuff I've heard in a long time. A touch Bloc party, a touch Arctic Monkeys, a bit of Shy Child and you'll get a bit of what Foals sound like. Then again this is all my opinion so DON'T hold me to it.

You just have to listen for yourself as I'll get all gushy and talk about how much I love them for pages and pages. I'll refrain...

Here is the video for their first single "Hummer":


Seriously, get into Foals
