CMJ 2007: Foals at Bowery
Don't you find it funny that the only band I took pictures of at the Sub Pop CMJ showcase is Foals, who are not even on the label. Foals is a UK post-punk band with angular guitars and funky drums. They could be a younger leaner Gang of Four but that is probably not a fair comparison since Foals has only released a few singles. The lead singer stands sideways to the crowd but maybe he really wants to emphasize the angles.
Le Loup on Hardly Art (an arm of Sub Pop) and Band of Horses were solid for their sets too.
