==Sejarah==
===Sejarah Awal===
Pada mulanya ketua kumpulan Youthmovies, Andrew Mears, pada mulanya membentuk kumpulan Foals, bermain sebagai gitaris dan vokalis. Beliau muncul pada single debut kumpulan ini berjudul "Try This on Your Piano/Look at My Furrows of Worry", tetapi untuk jangkamasa yang singkat meninggalkan Foals bagi memberi tumpuan kepada Album debut kumpulan Youthmovies berjudul ''Good Nature''.

Jack Bevan, Lina Simon dan Yannis Philippakis pada asalnya menganggotai kumpulan Rock Matematik, ''The Edmund Fitzgerald'', yang kurang mendapat sambutan ramai. Kumpulan itu dibubarkan, sambil mengakui ia "terlalu serius" dan mereka mahu lebih "keceriaan dalam bermusik".

Walter Gervers dan Jimmy Smith adalah bekas ahli kumpulan dari Oxford bergelar Face Meets Grill. Mereka berjumpa dan membentuk kumpulan di Abingdon Boys School. Mereka membuat persembahan gigs di dalam dan sekitar Oxford, dan merakam sebuah EP di ''Kingston upon Hull''. Selepas bermain di ''Truck Festival'' pada 2004 mereka berpecah untuk membina kerjaya dan haluan masing-masing.

Gitaris Jimmy Smith adalah satu-satunya anggota kumpulan Foals yang telah menamatkan pengajian ijazah di Hull University: setiap seorang dari ahli kumpulan Foals telah berhenti dari pengajian apabila mereka  mula menandatangani kontrak bersama''Transgressive Records'' dengan Ben Mackereth.


Pengaruh musik kumpulan ini bervariasi, Mereka mendapat inspirasi dari band-band terdahulu seperti New Wave dan Talking Head dan mencampur aduk pelbagai jenis aliran musik dalam lagu mereka. Mereka gemar menambah elemen tekno, elektronik dan dansa bersama Indie-Rock dalam sesebuah lagu.

Pada awal 2007, kumpulan ini mengeluarkan single ''Hummer'' dan ''Mathletics'', kedua-duanya di produce oleh Gareth Parton.<ref>[http://www.discogs.com/artist/Foals Foals Discography]. Discogs. Retrieved on 2 April 2012.</ref> "Hummer" later featured on the [[Channel Four]] teen drama ''[[Skins (TV series)|Skins]]''.

===''Antidotes''===
Pada musim panas tahun 2007 Foals mula menghasilkan album debut mereka di New York. Ianya di produce oleh ''Dave Sitek'' dari ''TV On The Radio''. Bagaimanapun, kumpulan itu membuat keputusan untuk menjalankan proses Mix sendiri, Mengakui bahawa Sitek membuat master copy album tersebut berbunyi seperti "ia dirakam di Grand Canyon".<ref>[http://www.nme.com/reviews/foals/9565 NME Album Reviews – Foals]. Nme.Com (12 March 2008). Retrieved on 2 April 2012.</ref> Yannis menyatakan dibanyak temuramah bahawa kumpulan Foals dan ''Dave Sitek'' mempunyai hubungan baik, walaupun cetakan album yang dihasilkan Sitek telah ditolak oleh Foals. Foals mengeluarkan Album debut mereka, berjudul ''Antidotes'', pada 24 Mac 2008 di UK dan 8 April 2008 di AS. Album berjaya secara komersil di United Kingdom, berada di posisi No.&nbsp;3 di UK Albums Charts.<ref>[http://www.theofficialcharts.com/top40_albums_last.php?week=88&end=30/03/2008%20-%2005/04/2008]{{dead link|date=April 2012}}</ref> Mereka juga mendapat kejayaan berskala kecil di negara lain, berada dalam carta di Jepun, [[Perancis]] and [[Belanda]].

===''Total Life Forever''===
Pada bulan Ogos 2009, Foals memulakan rakaman album kedua mereka di Svenska Grammofon Studion, Gothenburg, [[Sweden]]. Album berjudul, ''Total Life Forever'' itu, disifatkan oleh ahli kumpulan mereka sebagai "tropical prog" dan "seperti mimpi seekor helang yang mati".<ref>{{cite web |title = Foals: 'New album will sound like the dream of an eagle dying' |url = http://www.nme.com/news/foals/38547 |work = NME |date = 30 July 2008 |accessdate = 15 December 2010 |archiveurl = https://www.webcitation.org/5uzi1iiap?url=http://www.nme.com/news/foals/38547 |archivedate = 2010-12-15 |url-status = live }}</ref> Kumpulan itu menyifatkan album kedua mereka sebagai "Sangat kurang funk" dari apa yang telah mereka rancangkan sebelumnya.{{Citation needed|date=December 2010}} Album itu dihasilkan oleh Luke Smith. Tajuk album itu diambil sempena teori Ray Kurzweil berkenaan ''technological singularity''. Ketua kumpulan, ''Yannis Philippakis'' telah lama berminat dalam ''futurology'', ini dinyatakan dalam beberapa lagu didalam album ''Total Life Forever''.<ref>{{cite web |title = Blood, Sweat And Fears: Foals Interview |first = Matthew |last = Bennett |url = http://www.clashmusic.com/feature/blood-sweat-and-fears-foals-interview |work = [[Clash (magazine)|Clash]] |date = 3 June 2010 |accessdate = 15 December 2010 |archiveurl = https://www.webcitation.org/5uziNAw3m?url=http://www.clashmusic.com/feature/blood-sweat-and-fears-foals-interview |archivedate = 2010-12-15 |url-status = live }}</ref>
