Foals share ‘2AM’ video

After revealing the song last week, Foals have shared a video for latest track ‘2AM’. The song is taken from the now-trio’s forthcoming album, ‘Life Is Yours’, scheduled for the summer. The video comes via director Tanu Muiño, and was filmed in Kiev. Of the collaboration, frontman Yannis Philippakis says: “We love Tanu’s work. It wasn’t a collaboration we would’ve predicted, but I met up with Tanu in London, we hit it off and decided to work together. The moment I spoke to Tanu she was interested in the repetition of the lyrics, which is symbolic of being stuck in repeated patterns of bad behaviour. She wanted to visualise that with labyrinths and maze-like loops.” The director added, “Foals are one of my favourite bands, so this project was a dream to work on with Yannis. The labyrinth idea came from playing the track on repeat and the visuals came together when I met with Yannis. We connected on the creative, which is the ideal situation in videos to have him explain the meaning behind the track and the inspiration of the song. The more we spoke, the more the idea revealed itself. We felt the repetition of being stuck in the same place, the same life, the same situations all felt like being trapped in a labyrinth/maze that you are constantly wanting to exit and find a resolution for - you keep trying until you unlock it!” Features / Interviews Albums of 2022: Foals Ain’t no party like a Foals LP7 party, as the now-trio gear up for an album aimed at harnessing the hedonism of life once more.
