The second part is a beautiful sequel, less electronic but more lively, more rock, as if Foals' triumph ends with a fireworks display. Even if this suite could have been released as a single album, it wouldn't have been as good, it has much more interest and gains in value because it is very complementary and not so stackable. It's incredible after a premiere that I love so much, to have beautiful tracks like The Runner, Into The Surf etc... again that are really fun for me. Moreover, it was an excellent choice for me to have divided the album in two, because it allows me to make the album live over a long period of time, which is rare nowadays at the speed at which we consume music, and also to be able to appropriate and digest each track better, because 80 minutes at a stroke might be too long. Personally I prefer the first part for the moment, I may need more time, after all I'm eager to see which part will leave the most trace in a few years, like at the time Guns N'Roses with USE YOUR ILLUSION
