I think there were two songs on that album worth listening to, which, to me, isn't enough. I'll check out there next album, but I don't believe they are spectacular in the least. They are, in fact, quite dull.
I'm going to have to agree with you there. I bought Antidotes just recently and the only song that jumped out at me was 'Cassius' and, to a lesser extent, 'Balloons'. They clearly picked their singles well, but the rest of the album is mindnumbingly - as you said - dull. Bloc Party, who are in close cahoots with Foals, are about 1000 times more exciting and, hence, 1000 times better.
