Currently crushing on: FOALS [late night]
A foal is an equine, particularly a horse, that is one year old or younger. More specific terms are colt for a male foal and filly for a female foal. Foals on the other hand are an English indie rock band from Oxford, England. They just released their third album Holy Fire on 11 February 2013, and I keep going over it again and again. They’re also darn good live!
