Foals headlining Citadel Festival 2017 (Alberto Pezzali / Live4ever)
Foals have posted Into The Surf with Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 2 due on October 18th.
Part 1 has already secured a Mercury Prize nomination for the band, part of a particularly strong shortlist earlier this month from which Dave’s debut Psychodrama picked up the winner’s cheque.
“What’s in plain earshot is how far their scope has grown; on Sunday they’re halfway through delivering a stand-and-deliver mini-epic before tempo jumping without warning into an epic rave, while closer I’m Done With The World (And It’s Done With Me) is a sombre ballad filled with giant sweeps of destiny and resignation,” our Part 1 review reads.
“We’re at the half way point of Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost and so – perhaps deliberately – it’s hard to judge it without the feeling of a jumped conclusion.”
“Regardless of the subject matter however, Foals remain one of the few British bands to consistently master nuance and gentle power; once welded the complete picture may be their sleekest, most intoxicating yet.”
