Get excited, Foals fans - it looks like the band are set to return any day now, after sharing a teaser video online. Check it out below. 

The clip, simply titled '2015' shows a muted version of a music video, before their name flashes up a small clip of new music plays. It may be brief, but it sounds hard, heavy and leaning towards the mean and beefier rock sounds that the band touched upon on 2013's brilliant Holy Fire. 

Last month, frontman Yannis Philippakkis revealed that the lyrics had been inspired by Nick Cave, and that the sound of the James Ford-produced record was going to have a great deal more depth

"We felt that the spread on Holy Fire was good but on this we wanted to push it out even further, so the extremes were further apart," said Yanis. "The heavier songs are heavier, the popper songs are popper and weirder."

Speaking to Gigwise about the new album last year, Yannis said: "We're just turning the heat up in the oven a little bit. We haven't put the dish in, but we're like, pre-warming the oven."

He continued: "We might have some surprises coming out for fans, but they'll have to wait and see."

When asked where the band were planning to take their sound from here, Yannis replied: "We don't really think about it. I find it's kind of counterproductive to do that, but I'm pretty sure it will be different in some way.

"I think that's sort of the lifeblood of the band - for each track to vary a little and hold its own place on the album, but we'll see."

Meanwhile, Foals are set for a number of European festival appearances this summer.
