Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost – Part 2 will be released on October 18th, through Warner Bros. and Transgressive Records. The album cover was shot by National Geographic photographer Maggie Steber, and it shows a flower-filled graveyard.

Frontman Yannis Philippakis previously discussed their decision to record a double album with NME and said they went down this road because they weren’t able to convey their creative desire and ambition with a traditional 10-track record.

“What you end up having is a sacrifice to make this condensed statement. With this approach, we can finally convey the full artistic vision of the band with two statements that are vital and powerful and not in any way compromising,” said Philippakis.

The Oxford-based band recently performed at Big Weekend Fest, and Philippakis used this opportunity to share some exciting news about their next record.

“There’s a couple of mix tweaks to do, but it’s all there. We’re just really excited for people to hear that ‘cause I think it’s gonna show a different side to the project, if not the band. It’s quite different from Part 1,” said Foals frontman while chatting with NME.

While the first album embraced new wave sound, Philippakis said they wanted to deliver a much heavier record with its follow-up.

“There’s a 10-minute awesome space jam – like a Stanley Kubrick prog epic – and then there’s just some big riffs all over the record. It’s more of a rock record with a capital R – maybe two R’s,” concluded Philippakis, and added they’ll be putting out another 10 songs in a few months.

Y Not Festival has been around since 2006, and it’s been taking place in the small village of Pikehall ever since. This year’s event will be held on the weekend between July 25 and 28, and its organizers managed to convince a number of beloved artists to head to this tiny town in the Derbyshire Dales.

“We’re so happy to have a 2019 line-up bursting at the seams. We’ve got a huge mix of new and old faces to the Derbyshire Dales, with massive returns from classic bands such as White Lies, plus the huge welcomes to the UK’s hottest emerging stars like Idles and Mahalia,” read the statement released by organizers of this event.

Elbow, Two Door Cinema Club and Foals will be leading the way as headliners, but the list of performers features several equally popular bands, such as Wolf Alice, Franz Ferdinand and You Me At Six.

Truck Festival is a relatively new festival but has been gaining more and more attention in recent years.

The Guardian described the festival as: “The Godfather of the small festival scene” and the website description adds: “Coming straight out of the idyllic Oxfordshire countryside, we’ve been able to treat you to some of the biggest and best emerging artists since 1998! “

According to the Foals’ official media, Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 1, is due to arrive on March 8th, 2019, while Part 2 will be out in the fall of 2019.

The band shared the news about release dates alongside an accompanying trailer for the albums, directed by Albert Moya. Check it out below.  

Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 1 and Part 2 will be the band’s first studio releases without bassist Walter Gervers, who left the group in January after a 12-year tenure. According to the band’s official press release, Gervers left in order to “pursue a new life,” but his exit doesn’t mean they won’t remain “firm friends.”

Foals’ last studio album was 2015’s What Went Down, which had strong commercial performance while receiving positive reviews from the critics.
