Foals say new album will be recorded 'as close to home as possible'
Recording 'Total Life Forever' in Sweden was a 'ludicrous' idea
Foals have said they want their new album to be recorded 'as close to home as possible' in a new interview.
Speaking to NME, the band revealed that isolating themselves in Gothenberg, Sweden to record Total Life Forever was a "ludicrous" idea, especially in the middle of winter.
Foals keyboardist Edwin Congreave discussed the band's plans for the follow up to 2013's 'Holy Fire' saying:. "The aim is to record early (in 2015). I'd like to do it here (London) – or as close to my house as possible, because I've discovered late in life that I really love staying at home!"
"There's definitely a desire in the band to go to ludicrous locations but we've done that a couple of times. Gothenburg in Sweden in winter was ludicrous in retrospect. We put ourselves in a ridiculously lonely situation."
Frontman Yannis Philippakis, had recently expressed the same sentiment saying "I also think it's good to be grounded after doing what we were doing last year. I wanted to go back somewhere safe and familiar."
No further album details have been released yet.
