Antidotes - Foals



So, after weeks of speculation the Foals LP has finally come to light ; and it doesn't disappoint!!! The pre-release buzz centred around the decision to omit the two singles 'Mathletics' and 'Hummer'; some said it was brave, others stupid but whatever, the album certainly doesn't suffer from the omission - it stays true to the Foals sound, vaguely afro, lots of hi-end guitar, lots of hi-hat and loads of class. The pick of the album must be 'Cassius' the new single. Production credits go to Dave Sitek from 'TV On The Radio' who kept the recording crisp and clear. Foals nearest competitors in the 'so good it hurts' league are Vampire Weekend. Surely this must be an early favourite for Album Of The Year!?
