Foals tone it down on new single "Into The Surf"
Foals have opted for a softer approach on new single "Into The Surf", the third track to be lifted from their second album of the year, Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 2.
Arriving after their first two singles "Black Bull" and "The Runner", "Into The Surf" is a soft, yet pensive offering from Foals' second record of 2019.
Speaking about the new single with DIY, Yannis Philippakis said, "On "Into the Surf" there’s this shadow of death, of someone not returning from a voyage. There’s a type of Greek folk song that’s always to do with the immigration of Greek people and how dying on foreign shores is always viewed as the worst fate – to die far away from your home and your family."
Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 2 will follow on from their first album of the year, Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 1, which dropped back in March, and was nominated for the 2019 Mercury Prize award.
Discussing their second LP of the year at the Mercury Prize nominations event, vocalist Yannis Philippakis said it's "a heavier listen", and riddled with "big riffs".
