+Benjamín Byersuck It's pretty shocking that some people don't know sarcasm. lol

[@souvie]

Lone Owl i know hahahaha

[@losblancos99]

This song popped into my head today so I came along here. Coincidentally it was released 10 years ago from today. I remember watching and listening along to FTP music videos like this back then in high school, and they really helped me get through that time not knowing fully grasping how special and free those times were. Now I am an adult in his mid 20s and struggling with the realities of adulthood. I hope there are brighter days ahead and I get to taste that freedom of when I was younger again. Crazy how time flies by. Listening to this give me an existential rush.

FOSTER THE PEOPLE, HOW I'VE MISSED YOU SO

[@LifeOfSammieAndSummer]

Love it! Can't wait for the album!

[@olithe1dude]

I wish my bedroom walls were like that building

[@FrankieStein17]

Me too!

[@mars-se2nr]

so real

[@IAMSN]

I'm so happy I remembered this exact song and video. Such a classic!!

[@brasovraskon4697]

Torches was such a good album, and hearing this new tune from FTP brings a huge smile to my face. They haven't lost their touch.

[@theHexxManiac]

I'm sooooo happy they're back! Hands down one of my favourite bands.

[@theHexxManiac]

***** Lol, this new album is probably gonna be my favourite of all 2014...and it hasn't even come out!!! :D

[@theHexxManiac]

***** Same here. I can't even count how many times I've replayed this song Lol

[@thawnaurora]

MY FAV SONG. FAV ALBUM. FAVE ERA. FAV BAND. THANK YOU FOSTER THE PEOPLE.

[@yellowmesh7821]

I've waited 3 years I think I can wait another 3 months

[@Teioh100]

Idk man, the wait is killing me. So much suspense, somedays I worry that I will be let down and then I remember how awesome Foster The People is.

[@DARKFLAME293]

they said they would've had an album out early 2013 in 2012. was afraid they were done making music since i loved the first two albums.

[@yellowmesh7821]

DARKFLAME293 Yeah I was afraid too, I was hoping the album for 2013 but I felt releaved after I found a song of Rae&Christian featuring Mark and I realized Foster the People was still alive.

[@ktftp]

good news you can stop waiting now

[@Stevintage]

when i first heard it, it didn't sound that great to me. but it's grown on me and I love it now

[@dowhillsta]

the same thing happen to me huehuehuehue :B

[@seamusthedawg]

***** thats not the fucking stockholm syndrome. foster the people aren't keeping you captive, you like it willingly

[@AriadnaGuzman]

Same here! xD

[@jani0077]

Torches was, and is one of the greatest albums in the past decade - I'm very choosy when listening to music, and it is the only album on which I liked all the songs - hope this album will be the same :)

[@MasterExploder61]

Not dissing Torches or anything, I like Torches, but that's a HUGE statement you're making. Keep in mind, when you call something a great album of a year, let alone a decade, you have to weigh in certain factors of the music like marketability, flow, originality and with age; legacy. I really liked Torches too but it barely made the top 10 of 2011 on my list. MGMT and beforehand, Of Montreal sort of dabbled with this sound in the past so innovation is left to be desired.

[@jani0077]

Die Rabe Digitale album of the decade is a totally subjective criteria, and music cannot be different. For me it is, and maybe for those also who liked my comment. :)

[@ZazarStudios]

I disagree, though I liked Torches a lot. I'd rank torches at 8/10, but that's just my opinion. I am very excited for this album though. I think this will be my album of the year. The only problem I had with Torches was the lyrical content in most of the songs felt uninspired and not great. The second problem I had was some of the songs had these weird noise I couldn't stand. That's my opinion though, and regardless, it was a great album. I can't wait for this album.

[@2thinAir]

ZazarStudios i can understand you. Mark Foster himself will agree with you that he made torches out of electronic sound than for sensible lyrics (Although I personally believe his lyrics which is scattered among his all songs in Torches in still awesome and have great meaning). I think Foster wants to make this album "Supermodel" be very lyric, human and real which is targeting totally different audience like you. Im expecting more from foster like more lyrics and music. Coming of age has just three paragraphs of real lyrics. But at end of the day, we just have to satisfy with music and beat I guess. I don't really see many people in industry who write lyrically strong anything anyway.

[@zachsilva6201]

ZazarStudios Yea, I liked the songs but I thought the mix was pretty bad on some, pumped up kicks being the worst offender. I love that song, but I can't listen to it unless it's the live version because it sounds like a demo, which it basically is. I wasn't really into the electronic sound either. It seems like they really took their time to make this a good album though, and after hearing this song I have some pretty high hopes.

[@trecoast]

YES SO GOOD. Amazing artwork too

[@Hollywoodsteve]

I just saw FTP in concert tonight along with a dedication of this mural in Los Angeles. It was a magical night that I won't soon forget. These guys can rock like nobody's business.

[@ItsRianCosta]

Foster is back! Love from Brazil

[@holaefrain]

Just going to take a drive to L.A. to see th - they took it down. ok. cool.

[@Leila-he2gx]

+Efrain Cuessy Do you know why?

[@MsADS2]

+Efrain Cuessy ayyy :D :D

[@bobbyhill5067]

+Leïla Roulin why?

[@243CJ]

I would like to know why they would do such such a thing

[@andrugsbeat]

I was planning to travel from México u.u just to see it.

[@RSBlackPaw]

Aww man can't wait for this album to come out. Been waiting for years for Foster The People to put out new music, love every single one of their songs and this one is just as great as the rest.

[@senzayyzone]

maaann this was beautiful if you focuse in the lyrics and the painting god bless foster the people and the ones who worked their asses off doing the painting I swear thats beautiful to the eye street art is the best category I will say Im touched Im feeling this song btw I already want that album in my hands counting days

[@cornettomsc]

Yup. Sounds good! :D Can't wait to listen to the other songs! Thank you for being back again! :D

[@nightstand68]

I like the last album. I can't wait to get this one. Do you normally like indie music Cornetto BSc?

[@nightstand68]

March 18th. I'm ready.

[@cornettomsc]

Wilson Nightstand Me too. :) It depends ... not always. As for indie music I like Bloc Party, too and alternative rock. Then some stuff from the 80s, mainstream and some pop music. However, many soundtracks/scores are awesome as well .... it's kinda hard to tell :D You?

[@nightstand68]

I've been exploring some psychedelic noise pop/experimental bands. Some will take a few spins to "get it" but will reward you. Animal Collective, Panda Bear, Menameno, Iron And Wine, Wilco ect.

[@nightstand68]

Cornetto BSc awesome band you must check out- Django Django. Really good music!

[@KingVoldemort96]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU FOSTER THE PEOPLE!

[@Mrnumber]

Although the mural is not there anymore, I am glad I got to see it through the magic of the internet :)

[@grazperrelli9018]

I am really getting into this band.

[@MobBossBobRoss]

Not one comment yet about the beauty of the mural? It's damn magnificent.

[@Hollywoodsteve]

Their new album "Supermodel" is going to be amazing. I saw FTP live in Los Angeles last week and the new songs absolutely sparkle.

[@voguekisses]

[@sambean9476]

After the gap in between, I'm so happy to see Foster the People haven't lost their touch in any way. Excited beyond belief for the new Album:D

[@stephanysra]

“I ate it all plastic, diamonds and sugar coated arsenic. We danced in honey and sea salt sprinkled laxative. Coral blossomed portraits in rembrandt light Cheek bones high and fashionable. SNAP! Goes the moment a photograph is time travel, like the light of dead stars painting us with their warm titanic blood. Parasitic kaleidoscope and psychotropic glow worms stop me dead in my tracks. Aphids sucking the red off a rose. But for beauty I will gladly feed my life in to the mouths of rainbows their technicolor teeth cutting prisms and smiling benevolently on the pallid hue of the working class hero.” - Words written on the cover of the new album Supermodel. Foster The People

[@Hollywoodsteve]

This song cracks Billboard's Alternative Singles top 10 this week! Congrats to FTP!

[@rawmustard]

This feels like where "Warrant" left off both musically and emotionally. I'm stoked for _Supermodel_.

[@UrbanSophistic]

[@TWISTEDBULLET]

Indie Alternative is too Strong right now!

[@tomorr93]

***** Well then if you get it, why's it so hard to fathom?

[@sonpecas8732]

so.... u do realize this isnt indie, RIGHT?

[@tomorr93]

son pecas It is, because whether you like it or not, as carter has mentioned, things have moved on and indie is now more about the sound than the status of their record label. Right?

[@sonpecas8732]

nah... im staying with the label status.... foster is WAY to mainstream Tom Orr

[@BlizzleCham]

son pecas Unfortunately Foster doesn't seem mainstream here in America.. At least to me!! Here in my area there is ONE song by Foster that is mainstream and its been for couple years called Pumped up Kicks.. I first hear that song in a.. gonna call it what it is.. but a strip club.. Gentlemans' club.. glad I did hear that.. I think their 'Torches' album should have been more heard. Like I said only song I ever heard other than me finding it myself was Pumped up Kicks..
