idles - joy as an act of resistance (1lp)

Explosive post-punk charged with political frustration and emotional honesty. IDLES channel anger into catharsis, delivering sharp riffs and shouted refrains that feel both confrontational and unifying.

The album tackles toxic masculinity, nationalism, grief, and class tension — but reframes joy as a radical, defiant act. A defining UK alternative release of the late 2010s.
