Foals Aim To Avoid The Limelight

Foals frontman Yannis Phillippakis has said that their album hitting number 3 in the charts has led them to think inwards and get back to being reculsive.

He told the Daily Star “The problem with being in a band like that, with this level of intensity, is you get severed from your real life.”

Phillippakis said that he doesn’t want to lose what made his band in the first place. “You become detached from all those personal experiences that you initially made music from, it’s important to settle down and get back to a different place.”

Foals have just started a giant world tour which concludes in the UK later this year.
