Foals - My Number

So, Foals new album is out on Monday 11th February. Third album and it will probably sell a lot of copies. I hope it does. As always with groups there are a number of acts that you could cite as similar/influenced by. In Foals case Vampire Weekend/Talking Heads respectively. But Foals always wore their African/funk type influences with a pop edge. I definitely feel this track is a great example of that. It still has that sound there, which was found on their first album, but it feels melded in with other things now. It's a great song and the video is interesting. It keeps you watching and reminds you of gig experiences you may have had. Though I am sure with the release of this album they will be playing much bigger venues than the one depicted in the video.
