Foals Want Pharrell Williams For Next Album

Foals have announced that they would like to work with N.E.R.D’s Pharell Williams on their next album.

The band released their second album 'Total Life Forever' earlier this year.

"We listen to a lot of hip-hop and our last single Miami had a kind of hip-hop beat. We’d love to get in the studio with Pharrell and get him to produce something for us," frontman Yannis Philippakis said to the Daily Star.

He added: "We’d stay away from a cameo, though, as getting guest rappers on songs is a tricky thing to do well. We’re so bored of hearing four-to-the-floor indie disco."

Meanwhile, Foals are set to perform a special gig in London on New Years Eve (December 31).
