Foals Quotes:
"I'd rather somebody stole the record on vinyl than bought it or streamed it on Spotify. Because I think you should listen to music on vinyl, and I think basically anything's better than that (Spotify)."
-Yannis Philippakis

"It's like going to a restaurant when the chef and all the waiting staff have worked their asses off, and you leave coppers as a tip, and you don't even pay the bill. That's basically what Spotify's like, I think."
-Yannis Philippakis

"It shows you don't need a backing track, you don't need affectation, you don't need Elvis Presley impersonations."
-Yannis Philippakis, While accepting the 2013 Q Award for Best Live Band

"Enter Shikari can go f*ck themselves, trampoline jumping twats."
-Yannis Philippakis

"[Guetta's music] is just bullshit. It is an abomination."
-Yannis Philippakis
