Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- "Chirruping guitars interlock with the grunt and grind of horns, while the percussive architecture is always infectious.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "On 'Electric Bloom,' the combination is magic: Interlocking guitars and glints of electro-metallic percussion swarm around intimations of disaster...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Foals kick out live-band post-punk that's as carefully micromanaged as techno tracks...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "ANTIDOTES' rampant adrenalin uproar depends on crazy rhythm, an intensity overload and hurl-yourself-around physicality.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "They've ended up with a set of terrific songs. 'Red Sock Pugie', 'Olympic Airways' and 'Electric Bloom' are handsome indie numbers with goosebump choruses garnished with exotic rhythms.", "It Is Shot Through with Sexy Yankee Disco Sizzle and Experimental Optimism.", Ranked #4 in Clash's "The 40 Best Albums of 2008" -- "They released debut album ANTIDOTES with caustic fervor and toured the album with improvised aplomb."
