    I am pretty sure the drummer for Foals has to be injected with speed before each performance. He is one of the fastest, most precise drummers in indie rock.

      You said what i was thinking😂😂

    • @paulgotik
      @paulgotik 8 лет назад +3

      It's posible but in metal and hard rock music, you have a lot of faster drummers.

    • @MaxBrilhart
      @MaxBrilhart 8 лет назад +5

      +paulgotik And jazz
      But yeah, this part isn't that complicated (I'm a drummer), but it's very tasteful

      So, we're just going to disregard Matt Tong, I see!

    • @MaxBrilhart
      @MaxBrilhart 8 лет назад +1

      Hubba BubbaBB Matt's great, as is The Walkmen's drummer. Both are very energetic and always seem to play what sounds right. I don't know if they're the best, but they should both definitely be in the convo.

    @mattb2704 8 лет назад +46

    The dance-ability in this track is incredible. It's a shame they moved away from this sound. There was so much energy there.

    I saw this clip many years ago and it granted me a love for a good indie music. It's 2024, I'm now a grown a"ss man and I come back here every now and then with gratitude and pleasure with a smile on my face.

    A band isnt a band without all of its members, but in this case I dare to say, the bassist is the key point to their music.

    IMO this is their best album, it's the math rock sound that does it. Reminds me of a Cast of Cheers. Except, not Irish.

      @reuireuiop0 4 года назад

      Math rock, never heard of that one. Cool !
      But.. Cast of Cheers... not Irish ??
      Oh I see, you mean, a band
      Mistook that as a hint to a TV series, referring to Big Bang Theory :D

    too be honest bro, i have been listening to indie bands like foals since 06-08 and the sad thing is most of the fanbase at that time were americans like me.All those bands/artists that i once listened to on jools holland are now getting millions of views because people are now discovering indie.I remember having conversations with my european friends and they had no idea who iron and wine was, beirut,grizzly bear,wolfgang,white lies,metronomy...(cont)

    @ApesMcCoy 12 лет назад +1

    It's spontaneous, I'd probably agree if they rehearsed the 'moves' but they're just going with the flow lol. The bands energy & antics just adds to the great music they play, it's much better than watching certain artists just standing there throughout the whole set.

    My friend and I were heading to Manchester one cold morning. We had just hopped off the train in Paddington and were making our way to the underground when I recognized someone I knew so I called his name. The only thing was I didn't know this person but that I in fact recognized him through a year long obsession. But it didn't occur to me that I didn't actually know him till it was too late, and Yannis was walking towards me after yelling his name. He was too cool and hairy to be real. The end.
