Foals have revealed what to expect from the second part of Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost, expected later this year.
The first part of the record saw the band go down a dancier, groove-driven route but by the sounds of it, the follow-up is going to be much different.
“It’s heavier. The guitars are at the front [and] there’s more guitars,” frontman Yannis Phillippakis told NME.
“There’s a 10-minute awesome space jam – like a Stanley Kubrick prog epic – and then there’s just some big riffs all over the record. It’s quite different from the first part, which we felt was more dance-y and more new wave."

He went as far as to say, "It’s more of a rock record with a capital ‘R’ – maybe two ‘R’s."
Foals are due down-under for this year's Splendour In The Grass but it's unlikely the project will be out by then. Yannis is talking about an Autumn release in the UK which would be our Spring.
