Foals’ new album is out in June.
Foals are previewing Life Is Yours again with Looking High.
“This is looking back to a more hedonistic time in my life, and a more innocent time in society in general, pre-pandemic and before the existential threat of climate change,” Yannis Philippakis says.
“It takes place in an alley in Oxford with two clubs – The Cellar and The Wheatsheaf – that all the city’s nightlife gravitated towards. It was before clubs started to close down and our cities started to change into more corporate, arid places. There’s an element of being haunted by nightlife that’s no longer there.”
Meanwhile, the band begin a UK tour with two nights at Usher Hall in Edinburgh later this month.
