Foals wrapped their latest tour with two nights at a venue they have a long history with, the Commodore Ballroom. Here’s a review of Foals’ August 7 & 8 shows in Vancouver, with photos from night one.

Now that you’re all sick of year-end lists, here’s the only one that matters: MINE. In which I discuss the Top 11 (my lists crank right to 11) Best BSR Things of 2013, featuring Osheaga, Primavera Sound, Sebadoh, Foals, Amanda Palmer and a look at the year ahead.

Foals destroyed Sydney at the Enmore Theatre on September 28th. Rather, Sydney destroyed Foals. Literally. Here’s how Yannis Philippakis lost his shirt.

A mammoth photo diary of the last handful of gigs in Vancouver, including Black Angels, Foals, They Might Be Giants and Moon Hooch, Parquet Courts and Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Read it and eep!

The first post of 2013 and I’m laying it out. My name’s Mikala and I’m a Foals-a-holic. And I’m also now trying to wrap my head around their new album “Holy Fire.”

Bombay Bicycle Club played Vancouver’s Commodore Ballroom on Feb 21st and were alright, thanks. Then I ran into Yannis from UK band Foals, randomly. Which was better. Here’s the full gallery, review and setlist.

Stagediving, amp-climbing, mic-destroying, stage-demolishing, spit-hocking….The Foals ripped themselves and Vancouver a new one in a feral live show at the Commodore Ballroom. Read on, then jaw drop. There’s even video. And a reply from lead singer Yannis Philippakis.

To use a headache-inducing-cliché, this is a DO NOT MISS tour. Foals are coming back to the US/Canada this spring and YOU NEED TO BE READY. Here are the dates.

I quite fancy me some Foals. I like their guitars. I like their bass and drums. I like the intensity of singer Yannis. And I really like their latest album Total Life Forever. I also really enjoyed THE STAGE INVASION at the Vancouver gig. I say as much in this review. Plus, feast your eyes on the pretty pictures as well.
