[OXYDENTALLYAWESOME]

Cheryl is a goddamn national treasure…and Idles fucking slay.

[Livelaughlimpbizkit]

The bass player is so tasteful, he always plays exactly what the song needs and him and the drummer are always right in the pocket. The rythym section in this band is just fucking awesome

[jaymeshh]

that drummer is one of the most hardcore accountants ive ever seen

[lazylion]

the bass and drums hold it down so tight that the guitars and vocal can basically do whatever they want
tight punk is tight

The wheel is dope, 4 years sober thank you 🙏

[PlayinWithGhosts]

I've been battling depression for almost 30 years of my life. It's very seldom that a band can come around and make shit feel infinitely better. I love everything about these guys. The first time I heard them was like hearing The Clash for the first time when I was a small lad. Thank You, Idles.

This band has forced my brain to re-calibrate what it takes to make GOOD music. No auto-tune, no fancy fretwork. Just tribal emotion that harmonizes in a way that we can't explain. I don't know how you just "come up" w/ this sound, but I'm hooked.

[maggiereedy]

The one band my husband, our teenager, and I all three fan-girl over.

[joelshields]

Bowen is moving towards Warren Ellis-type madman wizardry and I'm here for it.

[mikkelbdker]

"The Wheel" is a monster track

[dirtmcgirt]

Is it possible to fall in love with an entire band at once?

[mmayer]

This isn't just music,
this is pure art.
Just wow.

[smokeybrights]

Oh look it's our favorite band on our favorite station ❤️

[ChrisReynoldsIsMyName]

Saw them recently in Boston. One of the best shows I've ever been to. These boys are the real deal.

[nugznmugz]

I worked as the house A2 at their recent show in Dallas. I had never heard of them before. They KICKED ASS. Truly a band to see live, the energy is off the effin charts man.

[EK]

Idles (Live on KEXP) shows are in a league of their own. Everyone is just at 150% energy all the time.

[stephencollins]

Dev's bass sounding sensational here

[waynewheeler]

This band completely exemplifies why I love music and how important it is to me. Such honesty, emotion, and artistry. I love this band and its community.

[sneakybstrd]

Car crash definitely sounds even better live than it does on the album!
