IDLES - Joy as an Act of Resistance (August 31, 2018) Album • Page 2

thread bump for the AOTY with some 2019 tour dates, anyone?

@ Americans: if yr going, show up for the excellent Fontaines D.C.!

 

Might be seeing them in January. Only thing holding me back at the moment is knowing it’ll be difficult to get home / it’s a dodgy area

 

lol damn my little brother jus showed me this. colossus, samaritans, and television are all monsters. glad to see they have a healthy following.

 

This rules

 

Gonna get to this one soon. I missed it when it came out.

 

I randomly clicked on these guys on Youtube while jamming Dinosaur Jr today and expected a grungy-type band in their 40s. But fuck, these dudes are sick.

 

getting deep into both LPs atm

 

Bad books did this first haha

 

been scouring youtube and watching all their live vids/interviews. kind of obsessed atm

 

They are the best new thing in punk/rock in awhile, imo.

Their live performances are also some off-the-wall shit, which I love

 

Great band with a great live performance. Happy to see that they are receiving the love they deserve.
Did anyone else notice that they play a slowed down version of Samaritans live? (Or I think they did, that was the only song that lacked a bit of the energy it has on the album)

 

Yeah they've been doing that. Guess even they need to take their collective foot off the gas every so often.

 

I can imagine. Still one of the best shows I saw this year.

 

Just met Dev tonight as you do.

 

wtf this is so good

 

NEW SONG

 

This is great. Love this band

 

If anyone would like to hear the b-side hmu (they sent download links out to people who preordered the 7" single)

 

send me!

 

The only song i received after i preordered was Mercedes marxist

 

Did you preorder through Idles or their label?

 

Their label!

 

That'll be why - pre-orders through Idles directly get access to both songs (whether intentional or not) :)

 

Oh bummer! Can i have a sneak peak?
