Foals release new track ‘Black Bull’
It’s our first official look into ‘Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 2’.
After announcing earlier this week that ‘Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost - Part 2’ will be released on 18th October, Foals have shared the first official look into the follow-up to the Mercury Prize shortlisted ‘Part 1’.
Releasing ‘Black Bull’ today, those who weren’t a few drinks too deep before the encore of their Ally Pally shows will remember it being the first track of their encore introduced as “just a teaser, just a taste” and now we’ve got the whole damn meal. Well, the delicious starter at least.
An Absolutely Fucking Huge track, the opening guitar licks of ‘Black Bull’ build up into a thrashing rock number that sees frontman Yannis Philippakis undoubtedly straining a few vocal cords as he screams the lyrics over the tumultuous soundtrack. Tackling conflicted masculinity and delusions of grandeur, it’s biting and brilliant, the perfect introduction for ‘Part 2’.
Have a listen below. If you weren’t already excited for ‘Part 2’, you’re gonna be.
‘Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost – Part 2’ tracklist:
1. ‘Red Desert’
