Foals chap talks about new material
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 3 July 2009
Foals man Yannis Philippakis has been talking about the material the band are making for their next album, and says they’re not soaking up the kind of influences you might expect. He told 6Music: “Basically, everything that we didn’t like before, we’ve got into now. We don’t really listen to that much rock music at the moment. We’re listening to a lot of hip-hop, stuff like Donald Byrd and some long disco edits, Donna Summer, James Brown, stuff that before we would have always felt was too part of the canon”.
He added that he expects the new LP to be ready next year.
