Video: Foals: "Balloons"

Oxford, England's the Foals play the sort of jittery, rhythmically-focused post-punk that's been a steady thread through indie rock in this century. They released a live EP already this year; "Balloons", due in December, is their next single. The tune is produced by TV on the Radio's David Sitek, who is also behind the boards for their forthcoming debut album. The song's video, directed by Dave Ma, finds the band performing in a parlor while ravens perch on wrists and a chorus line of flappers in black dresses vogue it up in the background.
