Hottest Record In The World

Foals teased fans earlier in the week with a looped clip from 'Inhaler'. It pointed towards the Foals that we're familiar with and lead us down the wrong route. The result being an unexpected and pleasant one nonetheless. At 7.30pm, Inhaler was the track that united the listeners of Radio 1. It's the first song to be played from their third album, 'Holy Fire' which is expected in February 2012.

You can hear the influence that Foals have on bands all the time, so this new direction is welcomed. They don't try to escape the sound that is synonymously Foals but 'Inhaler' is heavier in every sense and the vocals a little more strained at the crux of the track. Once you're lulled into a false sense of security with the sounds that are present on Antidotes and Total Life Forever, you're roused by the cacophony that erupts from this robust outing from the Oxford quintet.

My reaction to this is the same as when I first head Antidotes - one of instant love. Whilst for me, Total Life Forever was a slow burner. I can't wait to hear what comes with Holy Fire.



Watch the video above. You can see Yannis sporting a rather snazzy jacket. I've never been so jealous of someone's attire since Mary Berry popped onto our screens last month on The Great British Bake Off decked out in her canary yellow, floral bomber.
