does anyone know if these strings were recorded AFTER they released the song? i just cant really hear any of this string section on the album. if it IS on the album, i wish it had been mixed to have the strings a lot louder! sounds amazing!
AND..does anyone get the feeling that 'influencedbylove'(ranks in the top 10 worst youtube names i've heard by the way) is a member of the lost prophets or something? trying to get rid of one foals fan at a time? good luck matey!
absolutely lovely. Just a quick question to someone who may know more than me, why have a composer when you can have a bass drum laying down foundations for the violinists et all ?
@Influencedbylove With significant trauma it would be possible to (to an extent) "kill" your hearing. Unfortunately there will always be people like you irritating people who are just enjoying themselves and enjoying what others have created. If you created something even if I didn't like it I would respect you for making it, but by being a dick all your life no one will ever respect you or anything you create.
@Influencedbylove Oh and I would suggest you watch the "Foals suck" series on youtube, oh wait no, its just a video log of there wonderful tour of the states....
I wanted to hear them as I'd heard that they'd be nominated for the Mercury Music Award. Instead of a promising track (as I'd been told it was) I have been treated to this utter garbage, this badly written tripe. Shame on you for admiring the "work" these miscreants have so haphazardly produced. Shame on you.
What a load of wank... This motley collection of musical perverts are an insult to art... and who's the bearded monster at 0:52? He looks like a sex-offender.
@Influencedbylove The bearded monster at 0:52 is Yannick Philippakis member and leader of one of the most talented music group of theses times : Foals. When we don't know we shut up and listen so you should shut up your mouth and listen sometimes! Perhaps you will be more cleaver, perhaps
His name is "Yannis" you say? Interesting... "Yannis" backwards is "Sinnay", which as we all know roughly translates as "sex-offender" in ancient Aramaic.
@Influencedbylove Who the fuck reads names backwards? I mean, wow, I've heard of some retards, but to have to flip somebody's name backwards and look for a meaning in some ancient language, wow, that's just sad.
Now to be honest, nobody gives a fuck what you think. You're just another troll, an attention-seeker. You clearly have no friends because this is the only way you know how to communicate with people: You troll till somebody replies. Now I'd gladly like to tell you to fuck off :)
Let's be honest, understanding music is one thing, recognizing that this is garbage is another. It's easy to say that "maybe I don't understand", but maybe you should stop and think what Foals and the LCO are doing.
It's pure, indiscriminate noise, masquerading as music. Do you really appreciate this abuse of sound?
@Influencedbylove ahh, that clears things up. so you like music with no key, no nice melodies or sounds. whatever. i'm doing a serialism compostition at the moment, its kinda fun to do using a paticular pattern and changing it around to create new parts but i have to say its harder to listen to than music in a paticular key in my opinion, i don't find it relaxing
@Influencedbylove Oh and one more thing, You listen to serialsim or whatever, I dont care, I wouldn't listen to it because it dosn't really go anywhere, its better than modern day popular music but hey, I dont care. And as I don't care, I would never go on a video with a taste of music I disliked, and rant and complain on what should be a place to share your love of the music playing in the video. I would be extremely happy, if you were to grow up.
No, really, you made your point very clearly with your first reply! You do get carried away don't you... It's quite endearing in a way, I do hope you write back!
I actually searched for this video because I heard some really good things about the London Contemporary Orchestra. They seem pretty pointless too.
@Influencedbylove someone should kill your hearing, making you deaf so you cant hear the beauty of music. That way you cant criticize anyones tastes or comment on anything music related. oh and i forgot to say, your a wanker with no life.
@Influencedbylove FOALS ARE FUCKING INSANE, CATCHY TUNES, INSPIRING SOUNDS, AND AMAZING DEEP LYRICS. ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID, YOU MUSIC WHORE, nobody cares what you think.
Sorry to shatter the illusion you're living in, but the fact that you took the time to write this little capitalized rant seems to suggest that you do care what I think.
Also, your comment is hardly that of someone with a stable mind, and loving Foals obviously means you're in the lower spectrum of humanity.
@Influencedbylove To be honest you sound like the kind of no-life douchebag that sits at home all day and complains. Get over yourself, you say I loving Foals "obviously means I am in the lower spectrum of humanity", since when did a genre of music ( the genre I am reffering to is the Genre Foals are slowly starting to create ) Decides on who I am, you have never met me, when you took your time to type Foals in the search bar. Dont bother commenting here again, Nobody cares.
Your bizarre infatuation with this ensemble of "musicians" doesn't reflect well on you. You have - perhaps unwittingly - coined a remarkable phrase. "When we don't know we shut up and listen so you should shut up your mouth and listen sometimes!". Quite what it has to do with my post is beyond me... I didn't know that it was possible to feel so passionately about such garbage.
I have tried to be "cleaver" and have failed... But I'd certainly like to take a cleaver to this record.
@Influencedbylove music is perception, what you consider music and what he considers music could differ greatly but just because you don't like something does not make it music. yeah you can say that you don't like it but you have to give them respect as artists. they're not "garbage" or "perverts" as you so ignorantly call them.
and plus why should any of us listen to your opinion? it's not more important that any other opinion out there.
@Influencedbylove it is, at least what you consider good. for instance let's say you hated country music. does that make it not music? no it doesn't. does it make it garbage? no.
Now, I'm prepared to be reasonable, but really... "Foals" aren't a genre like Country & Western. Surely, you see the difference? Please tell me you do...
And the LCO... What amateurish string playing! The leader of this ensemble really should practice more, it's a disgusting display of complacency in art.
@Influencedbylove yes i see the difference but i was giving an example or did you not get that? fine, how about this: honestly, i do not like the band Vampire Weekend but do i think they're not musicians? no, of course they are and i respect the popularity they have obtained.
besides if you don't like something, then don't listen to it or don't watch it.
@Influencedbylove im going to find where you live and murder you, if you find this bad you probably listen to some shit heavy metal like fucking metallica or some shit.
Can you honestly tell me that the London Contemporary Orchestra know what they're doing? It's funny that you'd criticize Metallica (although, I agree, they continue to plague this world with their noise) so easily, yet get offended by my opinion on this lovingly assembled collection of bum-boys who call themselves musicians!
You are welcome to my home anytime, just ring the doorbell and wait, I tend to be out and about during the day.
@Influencedbylove Your hopes have came true! But somewhat pointlessly I have replied, Just to say goodbye, I have loved our conversations, although I can only laugh at you whilst you use great grammar and hope everyone thinks your wonderful, all I ask is you stop disturbing what was a happy, musical atmosphere :)
