Atmospheric indie mainstays Foals have renewed a new lease of life, one which they lived out on their 2008 debut 'Antidote'. Where 'Antidote' tapped into the dancey rhythms of 'Red Socks Pugie' and the fun-filled grooves of 'Olympia Airways', Foals have dusted off their dancing shoes fourteen years later and swept the dance floor they once departed, for an album full of bliss melodies, sun-soaked vocals and clear blue waves of joyous escapism.
