Frontman Joe Talbot says, InchWe want people who've gone through trauma, heartbreak, and loss to feel like they're not alone, and also how it is possible to reclaim joy from those experiences.Inch Idles albums have always been anchored by these overarching themes, but the ability of the band to juxtapose beauty and rage with humor and drama has never felt more satisfying than on InchCrawler.Inch These stories are vividly brought to life through Idles' most soul-stirring music to date, recorded with co-producer Kenny Beats (Vince Staples, Freddie Gibbs). There are, of course, numerous moments that will inspire absolute mayhem in a packed concert venue, but there are also fresh textures and experiments that push Idles into thrilling new territory.

InchOn this album, our dissolution of ego was helped by Kenny's humble nature and willingness to learn. He has boundless passion for making the best song possible. Not the best 'rock' song ' the best song possible.Inch He continues, InchIt was writing selfishly that helped make it possible. Reflecting. Telling my own story. Not trying to tell everyone else's story. Not trying to fix the world ' just talking about how I am fixing mine.Inch

![Juan Carlos Fernandez-Nieto - Iberian Dances - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/1f04e978-7d7f-4a83-8f64-2f45c943c3ac.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
The piano pieces on this , all of them, show the lushness of aromas, colors, and reflections of prodigal lands in the production of artistic sensations. One could speak of landscapes in which the human element is present; the voice of a folk tradition which longs to express it's most intimate essence, not in an illustrative but in an evocative sense. They embody a perfect communion between the performer, the music, and the context, governed by it's aesthetic values that connect with the principles of reason, logos, and intelligence. The first cultural theme of nationhood is the idea of community reflected through shared memory and values, and, in this project by pianist Juan Carlos Fernández-Nieto they find their musical testimony.
Vinyl LP pressing. If 'Joy As An Act of Resistance.' was meant to detail the band's manifesto, then their highly anticipated third album Ultra Mono' - is the sound of Idles heading into battle, battering ram in hand, for those tenets. Sonically constructed to capture the feeling of a hip-hop record (Kenny Beats even helped with programming on several tracks), the songs double down on the vitriolic sneer and blunt social commentary of their past work. Not far beneath the surface of their self-admitted sloganeering lies a deeply complex and brutally relevant album that chews up cliches and spits them out as high art for the masses. Active presence and self-acceptance also stand at the core of 'Ultra Mono,' with much of the songwriting done on-the-spot in the recording booth, and the phrase 'I am I' serving as a lyrical and spiritual mantra throughout. Ultimately 'Ultra Mono' is a celebration of community.
Vinyl LP pressing. In a time of polarized politics and murky waters; Idles and bands like them are needed to remind people that it's ok to dance and laugh and sing in the face of adversity. Bristol's finest post-punk polemics Idles have been promising to do great things for some time now, and with their 2017 debut album Brutalism they absolutely fulfilled that promise, and a furious promise at that. Politically charged, refreshingly confrontational and infectiously volatile, Idles are a band like no other. Bringing the unsettling reality of the world we live in into their frantic assault on the senses, Brutalism perfectly encapsulates the intensity of their live sound.
