Foals - "Red Socks Pugie"

Foals isn't there yet. As so often happens, we in the world of promo hear one or two good tracks (in their case, "Hummer" and "Cassius"), and decide that the forthcoming debut is going to save not just rock music, but possibly the whales and the redwood forests too. As you can tell from "Red Socks Pugie," Foals still has to find that balance between creating atmosphere and moving within it.

They're still intriguing creatures, though. They have a special knack for tapping into and evoking dread, and they've made a video to match, with soothing footage of the band shot on the same cameras that taped those first atomic bomb blasts.
