Foals deliver new single 'Looking High'

With their highly-anticipated new album landing in the summer, Foals have now dropped the next cut to be lifted from their forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Looking High' comes accompanied by a brilliant new video, directed by Kit Monteith, and follows on from the previously shared tracks '2am' and 'Wake Me Up' in previewing their new LP 'Life Is Yours', which is out on the 17th June via Warner Records.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Yannis Philippakis describes the song as a "more hedonistic time in my life, and a more innocent time in society in general, pre-pandemic and before the existential threat of climate change.

"It takes place in an alley in Oxford with two clubs - The Cellar and The Wheatsheaf - that all the city’s nightlife gravitated towards. It was before clubs started to close down and our cities started to change into more corporate, arid places. There’s an element of being haunted by nightlife that’s no longer there."
