Despite the fact that I still have know idea exactly what "math rock" is, I have been listening to and been a fan of Foals since the release of their first album, Antidotes, a couple of years ago. It was one of those obsession albums, the kind containing nothing but perfect tracks that you cant get out of your mind and you play on repeat every second of every day for weeks on end. I've always been one of those people who just considers "good music" to be the music that I like... and in my mind this was helllaaaa goooooood. When foals released their second album Total Life Forever, I was not a fan. Spanish Sahara was the first song I head, and being an Antidotes loyalist, I was not impressed by this down tempo departure from the way I knew and loved them.
I am a changed woman. Foal's set at the Bowery Ballroom tonight was nothing short of flawless. Those guys play their electric guitars as if they were hand carved cellos (such precision, and resonance.) And their drummer is kiiiiiiiiiiiind of a babe (as well as an excellent musician...fo real!)
Almost cried, got chills, almost had a heart attack... such an emotional roller coaster. I just cant even talk about it anymore... still flyin' sooo high.
