Foals – Total Life Forever (8/10)



Foals are back with a refreshing album that excited me just like their debut. In many ways similar, the album packs even more boastfulness and changling riffs than ever before. Rhythmically perfect Foals express their solidarity from start to finish on this dazzling album.

Top tracks are most certainly the opener “Blue Blood” and “Total Life Forever” these are what I would describe as Foals at their best, very predictable in terms of what we have come to expect from the band that’s for sure, but there’s no denying its genius. No one can take this away from these guys. The drums and bass fit together like they are one instrument with the delicate guitars chipping away on the surface.

It’s definitely worth a purchase if you haven’t done so already. The question of the band yet to answer is...... will their next album be the same? if so, does the sound get tiring after a while? Most certainly not for me, but will the masses see these lads as one trick pony's?

I love it and im sure most people will, a quality summer album sure to echoe from festival to festival.
