Foals share The Runner from Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 2

“It’s a call to find a sense of purpose and perseverance despite the odds and despite the troubles we may find inside or outside ourselves,” Yannis Philippakis has commented after Foals shared another taste of the second part of Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost.

With a Mercury Prize nomination secured for Part 1, Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 2 is out on October 18th and is being previewed now with The Runner:

“For the most part, Philippakis is happy to let the album’s messages be delivered fundamentally within tramlines that will please Foals’ famously rabid fanbase, but there are occasional glimpses of what the project’s second installment could bring if he subtly chooses to turn the tables on them,” our Part 1 review reads.

“One seems to be an unfinished idea – the ambient sliver of Surf Pt.1 – but Café D’Athens is a feast of percussive Asian-indebted rhythms over a looped Amen break, a feast song that could be the opening of a new chapter or simply an experiment in devilry.”
