Foster the People don’t even have a full-length album out yet, but it’s safe to say that the world has caught on. The band was about 20 minutes late to its date at Coachella’s Gobi tent, the smallest of the three covered stages, and no one was budging. There were a few boos, of course, and fans started looking at their Coachella schedules, knowing that Duran Duran would be starting over on the main stage just a few minutes after the technicality difficulties were solved.

Yet once the act, now a five-piece in its live incarnation and centered around lead singer/keyboardist Mark Foster, finally took the stage, they pulled a gutsy move. Straight into a known song — a track from an earlier released EP, perhaps — it was not, as instead the band went direct to something atmospheric.

Foster the People are skilled in the art of the slow build. The act unveiled one of its new songs, which fans have been calling “Got to Get Away,” and keyboards led to a torrent of tom-tom drumming and all of it comes and goes thought the song. It’s a rock ‘n’ dance song as a grand tease.
