That feeling I had as a teenager listening to Damaged by Black Flag for the first time...THAT FEELING is what I'm experiencing at 55 listening to this!!
52 here. Somehow I missed Idles in the past years (well, I had a baby five years ago that made me lost contact with what's new in music..). .. btw, now I am completely hooked. If I had listened to Brutalism when it came out, I think I would have felt "that feeling" too ...
Never in my 40 years of life have i heard anything with this much positive raw power. This makes my arm hairs stand on end. Thank you for this sound. From Houston, Texas.
tiny desk was the first step (I think I might have fallen even faster than you). But then I saw the interview. This (combined with the studio albums and live shows) blew me off like an atomic bomb. th-cam.com/video/v7Lvy682-WM/w-d-xo.html
No ads on any idles music is like finding a hack or exploit in a video game -- I just hit play on anything and that's my ad-free playlist for my commute lol
Thank you , Frank . Interesting how the title White Privilege is blanked out of the song list on the back of the album's cover. But if they chose to do that , i abide. I first saw these guys less than one year ago on NPR's Tiny Desk Series from Washington , DC (produced by Bob Boilen). th-cam.com/video/wMehItNQKAA/w-d-xo.html They totally cracked me up !!
I have returned to this so much since it dropped (in february I think). Definetly my Album of the year. And in my eyes the best Punk record of the decade thus far. Go ahead. Show me a better one, I dare ya.
Happen to catch their killer performance at Glastonbury and was blown away. Never heard of them before then...... I now have all their albums. What a relevant life changing band. Great job Idles, love and unity!
Aloha 🤙🏾 Hawaii loves Idles! I 59 and so hooked on the aggressive yet loving lyrics. The music 🎶 is an argument for new music that rips hard. Idles: WELL DONE 👍🏾
Listening "Mother" for the first time was for sure one of the best experiences I had in 2017. The whole album was epic. The second album was even greater (Collossus being the best song I heard in 2018) Now.. to be completely honest.. I'm not even sure I deserve a third album haha (I haven't been that good of a boy, you know..) But please do come to South América. I had this dream this other night where I got to see you guys playing at this very traditional gig down at Rio de Janeiro (Circo Voador) ~ I woke up thinking: how is this not a memory I already have? haha
From Uruguay here. What a piece of human sound this album. Don't come to a big Festival, too expensive for a proleta like me ha ha. Just come you, alone. To Montevideo, please! I'm a fkn' bastard of a fan, but not the only one. For sure! You'll see!! Swing bara bara yeaahhh
The energy in this makes me wanna burst through a brick wall head first. Fucking great album, deep and meaningful lyrics, impeccable attitude. Hurray for Idles!
This band have saved my life so many times .....Joe and co keep it up but I love this album like I loved nevermind by nirvana can't wait too actually see yous live ....from fuertaventura Canary Islands ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My art homework was self assigned, sponsored by my local library and the skills were completely free. Thelonius Monk said that the genius was the person most like themselves.
"The best way to scare a Tory is to read and get rich!" I have thoughrouly enjoyed thealbum over the past few months so it's nice to see it pop up on the subscription feed for anyone not paying attention! :)
@@frflinstone But thats the thing, the only real way to fuck with Tories is to become just as rich and powerful as they. You can do damage from wherever, but if you get rich, you come onto the same level as them. Right? The trick is to not become like them.
While I do adore Joy As An Act of Resistance, I always find myself coming back to Brutalism more and more. It's a very cynical, very dark, very depressive album, and you can see why they went for a more triumphant and resilient tone with the second album, but I think this one shines through. The performances are so much more organic, the lyrics so much sharper and wittier, and it feels so genuine and dug in to the soul, rather than the sometimes cheesy platitudes you get on some songs on the second album )*cough* I'm scum *cough*). JAAAOR is a very important album, but this was the better one.
But no where have you mentioned that Brutalism reflects what each member had been through up to that point. Surely you can see that this has to be included in any comparison?
Dude, Daughters dropping YWGWYW blew my fucking mind. A decade of nothing and then a masterpiece.. IDLES are right up there with them. Their last 2 albums have been top notch.
Idles at this very moment are in their highest point of their career so it's normal to tour mostly in north europe where there is massive music population .A friend of mine wich is promoter said that already have tried to bring them in Athens but they didnt answer at all .
@ everyone arguing over why White Privilege is censored: “‘White Privilege’ is about my first year of uni, and just taking loads of drugs and the people I was surrounded by, and just how ridiculous it all was, and what a waste of time and money it was for a lot of people. And I thought White Privilege would be a funny title as people were mostly white. We were white, and we were privileged, so I just thought I’d call it White Privilege. I know some people on the internet have been quite angry about that title, I think it is because they wanted something more to go with the shock factor of the title. But it’s not really about race; it’s about privilege in general.”
White people invented air conditioning. they deserve a special place for that. I live in the tropics, where the brownies had no such inclination except to go swimming. Brownies don;t do so good in the sun. They usually melt.
MAN!!!!! YOU GUYS ROCK!!! MAKES ME WANT TO TAKE MY PANTS OFF AND BREAKDANCE!!! I'M SO HAPPY FOR TINY DESK !! THAT IS WHERE I FIRST HEARD YOU! GREAT LEVELS AND SOUND THAT PLACE HAS BTW!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! IDLES!!!!!!!!! I NEEDED THIS
Wow, i was looking for something else about brutalism, and clicked to a random point in the video, and realized I recognized this song.. Used to be in my playlists like 2 years ago, damn good album. That was pretty suprising tho lol
This Album Really is, One of the Best albums I've heard in, Actually in ages Every Track is bang onn Got there Own sound ya know Brilliant 👏 Great band still Blast these tunes out 👊
Officially my favourite band of the moment. I just hope they last being fucking great for 5 or 6 albums rather than 2 or 3 as is usual for stuff I like.
@@roryghee9125 What's wrong with wanting a band to be great for a bit longer. My actual favourite band of all time and space did 4 great albums. A couple of alright ones and some of the most boring and bland things I have ever heard. My oldest child repeated to me something I said years ago. Namely, "If you like every track that a band has made they aren't trying hard enough". I stick by that. It's just pleasurable when they last a wee bit longer.
@@duvadjidgo9625 don't be greedy, hit the repeat button instead. Too much of a good thing usually turns it to shit, but I hear you brother, rock on 🤘🤘👌

Great band, kind of old skool punk with a modern twist, they have their own sound and its quite infectious. Great lyrics to boot!
IDLES are hands down one of the best new bands in recent years!
Album of the year right here. ✊
Damn, this thing is exhilirating! What an angry, funny, dirty and absolutely relentless record!!! Faith in political/socially conscious punk restored.
Yes. Ramen 🍜🙏🏾
So excited to see you guys again. You've been the soundtrack to my recovery
I’m having a spiritual experience listening to this today - after a little smoke! Cheers Guys x x x
This album gets better every time you hear it!
I came here after listening their "From the Basement" session recently. Punk will never die!
Today Brutalism saved my life. Again.
I have returned to this so much since it dropped (in february I think). Definetly my Album of the year. And in my eyes the best Punk record of the decade thus far. Go ahead. Show me a better one, I dare ya.
You probably know the record, but if not, check out relatives in descend by protomartyr, I recently discovered the band and I really like them.
TASTEINMUSIC Same bro. I live that album very much. One of my favs of the year. But BRUTALISM is still my Nr.1 in 2017.
Pissed Jeans are good contenders.
Joy As an Act of Resistance! Even better.

Happen to catch their killer performance at Glastonbury and was blown away. Never heard of them before then...... I now have all their albums. What a relevant life changing band. Great job Idles, love and unity!

Listened to Heel/Heal lyrics & I was like “Yes lads...I’m in!!”. Fucking right. Finally a band that’s saying something meaningful.

This is the best album I've heard in 10-20 years.
How many albums did you hear these last 10-20 years ? 5 or less ? However, it's a excellent album.
You need to hear more man
There’s some amazing albums out in that time but have to admit it’s epic
20 years is a stretch 😂😂😂😂
Saw you guys at latitude 2017, now I'm hooked, got a handshake and a hug off joe, what more could I ask for. You are amazing!!!!
"Slow savage" made me cry.
Bravi!
Every time. 😢
dear god
this is a debut
I needed this today. I'd love to dig my hands into the earth and tear it in half. This would be my soundtrack
that last track destroys me every time
The energy in this makes me wanna burst through a brick wall head first. Fucking great album, deep and meaningful lyrics, impeccable attitude. Hurray for Idles!
