'Joy as an Act of Resistance' out now! Listen/Order at idles.lnk.to/joy All is love x

Objectively the best teeth in punk music, don’t @ me

You know the world is collapsing, when punk is back.

What's going on with me??? I am a woman in her 70's, one who mostly plays roots music and John Fahey on her steel string guitar,,, , and I am obsessed with Idles, obsessed, I tell you! I am smitten with the creativity and originality of this band. Sometimes I hear a song and go, nah..and then, an hour later I can't stop thinking about it and I need to hear it again. I'm late to the party, but I'm so glad they are getting their due. Ok, I have to go listen to Dancer again now.

Imagine IDLES having a Tiny Desk Concert

Brilliant track, cannot wait for the new record!

The *A N G R Y* bois are back

"I am my father's son, his shadow weighs a ton"......so powerful, so true!

I've suffered from depression and addiction for over 14 years. And this band have made me feel alive again!

This is the shit. So exciting. - JACK

this is the new album's opener. keep that in mind.

They opened their live set with this and it was perfect. The whole audience sang along and them Joe split the pit for the second half of the song, it set the best mood. If you have a chance, see them live. It’s fantastic.

"I waste away for fun. I am my father's son. His shadow weighs a ton." When Joe said that I felt it 😫

Just exactly the sound and attitude that got me into punk rock 42 years ago. Perfect!

I am my father's son, his shadow weighs a ton! Brilliant again lads!

BEST TEETH IN THE GAME

the way joe looks at the viewers at the end is my favorite thing for the rest of my days. this song is brilliant.

Joy as an act of resistance

IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES

the rising tension of this song is just incredible!!

These guys would be a great wedding band.

The buildup is great, nice to hear Idles progress like this. Colossus AF!

The end of this song is one of the most epic things ever made in all history.

he almost summoned the clash at 4:16

His voice is so incredible, and the way he puts such expression in every bit is electric!

Is this a new A24 film?

This is so good I started laughing

I'm 55 and this is the first new-ish band I've been excited about in a long time. Amazing stuff.

My friend sent me this video last week. I was going through a lot at the time and ignored it. Days later I find out he killed himself. About to go to his funeral. Just got the courage to check what he sent me and I listened to this as a token of respect. Rest in peace, Bryant. I miss you, man.

"I'm like Stone Cold Steve Austin. I put homophobes in coffins." best lyric of 2018

This is a creeping sledgehammer of a song, goddamn

3 months later it becames one of the best post punk records in a long long time

In media we got asked to choose a music video for everyone to watch. I chose this

This reminds me of Swans. It's the highest level of musical praise I can give. This video alone motivated me to see these guys in Lollapalooza Argentina 2022. One of the best concerts I've ever been to.

This song is one of the most powerful songs ever created by all counts.

I'm not one to psychoanalyze music videos but I never noticed he's covered his face in the first half of the video and that's when the song is focused on hiding himself and who he really is and by the time the masks removed he's had enough and ready to break the bones of the fuckers who made him feel like he had to hide himself in the first place. The guiltless righteous gay rage that kicks in after the bridge is catharsis put to film/song. Great all round

The best Swans song I’ve heard in ages

With IDLES one gets the whole health package. They provide mental stimulation while being the best workout music ever.

.. Joy as an Act of Resistance .. the album title is simply perfect !

Not since the Jesus Lizard, Rollins Band, Helmet or even Nirvana have I seen a band so hard hitting as the Idles ...hope is restored in music

Love how the band members help Joe with ridding himself of the burdens that makes him put his head in a plastic bag. Very wholesome. That's how I choose to understand this vid. Love you, boys!

This band have restored my faith in humanity (at least for today!)

Intro giving me some Coughs vibes. Really great stuff.

Amyl and the Sniffers restored my faith in music, The Idles restored my faith in humanity.

Love this band! This song reminds me of Einsturzende Neubauten--if anyone knows who they are/were.

Yo! What was this shot on? What kind of glass? Beautiful cinematography.

Calling it now, this will be my album of the year.

This is one of the most MTV things I’ve seen in 15 years. R.I.P. Pre-Reality MTV

I wish I could travel back in time, just to hear this track for the first time again.

god i love this band

This is my first time seeing anything by these guys and I must say I love the video and this music makes me feel like a badass

Went to see them live in Nashville and was lucky enough to meet Adam and Joe. My boyfriend caught Joe as he was getting on the tour bus and asked for a picture with us and he happily did so. If you guys are reading this, seeing and meeting you was the highlight of my year. Until next time 🖤

"I am my father's son. His shadow weighs a ton." Wow. Hit me hard. How many of you feel that lyric as much as I do?

this is so unbelievably good

been stuck in my head for days... i love the inflection, the rising intensity, the deconstruction. new fave

“What you have to understand, is your father was your model for God. If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God? What you end up doing is you spend your life searching for a father and God. What you have to consider is the possibility that God doesn't like you. Could be, God hates us. This is not the worst thing that can happen.” ― Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club

TODAY I DISCOVERED idles YAAAAAAAAAAAA

Those videos are real art. Like future museum quality.

A bit of early Nick Cave here. Amazing. Pure nerve.

These guys music moves me more than any music I've heard in a REALLY long time. The lyrics, the pure, raw emotions of the vocals, the amazing guitar and drum work! Man, these guys really are one of the best bands out there right now.

1 of the best endings to a song I’ve ever heard!! Ever !!!

Is this Wes Anderson's take on Red Hot Chili Peppers Can't stop music video?

this will be considered a classic in 15 years time

i was really disappointed with Glastonbury 24, but you guys smashed it, saved glastonbury, i can't quite explain just how good IDEA 01 was as an opener, the stars raining down, the atmosphere and mystery, then COLLOSUS, the red lights the fireworks, gave me chills man, so so good, thank you for the original music you keep giving us,

Part I [Verse 1] I was done in on the weekend The weekend lasted twenty years The world's best bulimic bartend Tender, violent and queer [Verse 2] Forgive me father, I have sinned I've drained my body full of pins I've danced 'til dawn with splintered shins Full of pins, full of pins [Chorus] Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes [Verse 3] They laugh at me when I run I waste away for fun I am my father's son His shadow weighs a tonne [Chorus] Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes [Verse 3] They laugh at me when I run I waste away for fun I am my father's son His shadow weighs a tonne [Chorus] Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes [Verse 2] Forgive me father, I have sinned I've drained my body full of pins I've danced till dawn with splintered shins Full of pins, full of pins [Chorus] Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Goes and it goes and it goes Go go go go go go! It's coming It's coming It's coming It's coming It's coming It's coming It's coming It's coming Part II [Bridge] I don't want to be your man, your man I don't want to be your man, your man [Verse 4] I'm like Stone Cold Steve Austin I put homophobes in coffins I'm like Fred Astaire I dance like I don’t care I'm like Ted DiBiase I win no matter what it costs me I'm like Evel Knievel I break bones for my people I'm on my best behavior Like Jesus Christ our savior I'm like Reggie Kray

I'll see you all in Nashville this year.

this is Art. Honestly Some of those stills. The mood of this whole thing!!!! I'm love.

I’m here 7/30/2022. Great Lollapalooza set today.

When I first heard this song I had no idea where all the twists and turns were going to take me. I loved experiencing the unbelievable build up and release - perfect song ❤️

Watched this about 20 times now - genius!

I am going to get arrested when this record drops... that's like 1000% happening

The world need you guys.

I have to thank the TIDAL algorithm for leading me here. Had been listening to Amyl and the Sniffers album and it auto-continued into IDLES. I literally have listened to nothing else since. I love discovering a band who has an entire back catalogue to explore. No better joy.

This is my favorite song right now. The way it builds on itself is fucking brilliant.

I was waiting for that climax since they kept building it up. Nice song :)

This is the kind of shit that gives me back my faith in music

"They laugh at me when I run I waste away for fun I am my father's son His shadow weighs a tonne" The weight of awful childhood experiences is this constant impending obligation to put on a mask for others. Your parents are NOT you. No matter how beautiful or horrendous they are/were. You are YOU. Love yourself.

My new favorite band. Brilliant track and video. Although I think I've been living in England too long... the first time I listened to this I thought he sang, "Full of Pimm's"

The more I listen to this song the better it gets... every time, it goes and it goes....

I wish I had a friend to tell about this awesome band I just discovered.

Woooooowwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!

"They laugh at me when I run" I always picture a man with a really silly run.

Thanks, Melon.

Boys boys boys boys boys

Antony Starr brought me here, loving the experience

That relief you get after the build up is amazing

what a fucking band. pure class

Layers and levels.

My favorite so far...the Houston show was amazing

I loved the simplicity in lyricism of brutalism but it's so nice to see the change with some many different tones in one song. Reeeally nice

If you have the opportunity to see them live, do it. Just went and saw them again with LCD sound system. It was insane.

My dad introduced me to this album and idles and god, it’s beautiful. The emotion, fury in these songs is brilliant. Gives the feeling that the worlds collapsing.

I keep coming back to this song.. many times

“Why do you play that so loud?” “Because it sounds good”

This video radiates the same energy as an A24 film and its creeping me out

Maybe the best concert introduction I've seen. The band was incredible at "Rock en Seine" in Paris. Long live IDLES.

They open with this one at most of there concerts. I'm so glad I was there to witness it.

the build up is so incredible

Oh good lord I love you

I saw these guys live when I was younger. Must have been 20 or so. Was so excited to see them too the bass player was very nice & the lead vocalist surely had presence in the stage
