He broke this control voluntarily. Yannis Philippakis called it their heaviest record, and the band leaned toward something closer to all-out aggression without abandoning the complexity that made them interesting to begin with, a truly difficult balance that holds up for the most part. It became their highest-charting album in America and reached number three in the UK, proof that this heavier shift cost them nothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe title track opens the album at full speed, a riff designed to be screamed back across a festival field. “Mountain at My Gates” is the closest thing to a pop song here, with a catchy chorus over guitars that still bite. “A Knife in the Ocean” slows the tempo in the most atmospheric part of the album, and “Give It All” closes things out with the kind of cinematic build-up that Foals had been working towards over three albums, finally landing exactly where they needed to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTen years later, still their most physical record. The new color matches the mood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinylestore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910335234125,"sku":"5021732733139","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/9131\/7325\/files\/Foals-What_Went_Down_10th_Anniversary_Olive_Green_Black_Marble.jpg?v=1794005698","url":"https:\/\/vinylestore.shop\/products\/foals-what-went-down","provider":"Vinylestore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
