Foals Antidotes [Sub Pop/Apr 8] |
| Though I was slightly underwhelmed upon first listen of this album, the debut from this Oxford quintet kept finding its way back onto my playlist. Subsequent listens revealed a minimalistic subtlety not found on many recent dance-atronica records. Foals utilize myriad influences (everything from the madchester sounds of The Stone Roses to the current neo no-wave of New Young Pony Club), creating a dichotomy of cool — a mature, multicultural sound that staccatos along at a deliberately slow pace and still feels fevered and energetic; kind of like the assured international shitstorm of a U.S. oil spill near the Russian border.
