Holy Fire

Holy Fire, by Foals - 2013
9/10

'Holy Fire' is this big statement that transmits the idea of a storm, a curse, anger, immense power, something inevitable, this is also how Foals say "this is who we are, this is our sound, this is what we've become". (Even the artwork is in line with this, it's perfectly arranged and it strengthens the album.)

(---)

This album has everything, heavy groovy tunes, bursts of energy, insane riffs,  addictive drum beats, slow dark melodies. Since Prelude (this addictive basically instrumental tune with a great build up) to Moon (a dark and more twinkling where you can feel the lyrics and their meaning ), Foals create a sheer and massive album, it's more free, easy and more direct than their previous album Total Life Forever. Actually, the first song that I listened from them and that got me into Foals was Inhaler, you can listen it above.

So, summarizing, this is an awesome album so embrace him and let it be what it is.
