Foals’ forthcoming album ‘Life Is Yours’ is shaping up to be one of the hottest alternative records of the year. As hinted at by the recently released tracks ‘2am’‘Wake Me Up’ and ‘Looking High’, there’s an irresistible physicality to their new songs which makes it the poppiest and most life-affirming Foals album to date.

The already highly anticipated ‘Life Is Yours’ album is now boosted by the launch of a new zoetrope vinyl format. As the record spins, the animation is unveiled. Each side features a different spiralling pattern of roses, which have made for a striking visual motif throughout the album campaign. This represents the band’s first ever zoetrope release and will only be available via this limited run pressing, making it a must-have for Foals fanatics and vinyl collectors alike.

‘The Life Is Yours’ zoetrope disc is available to pre-order HERE.

The zoetrope vinyl album will be released in collaboration with limited edition vinyl specialists Blood Records. Able to craft designs that speak to fans and artists like, Blood Records are masters of the zoetrope format and their releases always sell-out in advance. The label has made a significant contribution to #1 chart positions from iconic modern alternative artists including Biffy ClyroFontaines D.C.InhalerRoyal BloodThe Lathums and Wolf Alice.
