From IDLES frontman Joe Talbot: “Joy is an act of resistance”; I saw the phrase and sat back awash with ecstasy. Sometimes, all your sh*t aligns in perfect order as words touch your heart and mind in one swift kick. This album was on its way and we, as always, were moving forward with big old grins up front, but I felt I was scrambling a bit; scrambling for words and scrambling for notions that fit where I was. We hold honesty as a paramount concern in our art but the trouble with being honest is that the harder you work to find the truth within, the more dislocated you become from...You. One can’t be themselves if one spends too much time outside looking in; and that’s exactly what I was doing on the heels of ‘Brutalism.’ It wasn’t until my partner and I had our world obliterated and I felt cut in half that I realized I was nothing alone and that I was only here because of my partner and my loved ones and the band, whose love and compassion carried us through such deep anguish. It was at that moment I realized that our “success,” so far, was due to us being naive and vulnerable: our strange ugly transparency had encouraged others to be honest with themselves and in turn others and us. It is that bravery to freely express yourself that so terrifies the tyrants, as when we share each other’s pain we become stronger as communities and less reliant on our State. All we needed to do was enjoy ourselves again, not as the “Idles” we were expected to be after ‘Brutalism,’ but who we were at that exact moment; it was beautiful. When I read the phrase “Joy is an act of resistance,” I immediately knew that that was something we were gifting from the very first moment we started fucking around with each other. There was always something fearless in our band, we laughed off the bullsh*t and loved the interactions our music created, writing exactly what we loved and not being fearful of judgement or being told we’re derivative or clumsy. Now with the second album I’ve realized that I needed to truly love myself in order to write honestly. Once again, I let go of worrying about the world telling me something that I already knew: I am completely flawed...but so are you and that’s ok. We are not alone. This album is an attempt to be vulnerable to our audience and to encourage vulnerability; a mere brave naked smile in this sh*tty new world. We have stripped back the songs and the lyrics to our bare flesh to allow each other to breathe, and to celebrate our differences and act as an ode to communities and the individuals that forge them. Because without our community, we’d be nothing."
All due respect to these guys for employing the most boring and derivative of narratives and lore into their schtick and seeing success of the back of it.
That was an amazing show. I’ve been to hundreds of shows at First Avenue over the last 25 years and I can say that room hasn’t seen anything like this in a very, very long time. Punk is not dead, it just Idles.

I watched this when it streamed, and that anecdote has been in the back of my mind for the past few months. Only just remembered which video it was. The world is fucked.
For context of what’s happening at 59:15 since I witnessed it Lee came right by me onto the balcony with his guitar. they were feeding the guitar cable all the way through the crowd. I guess he was trying to walk all the way along the balcony, but the cord wasn’t long enough. I think people were using teamwork, passing his guitar in front of these columns in the way so he could get through. But eventually it must’ve come unplugged. So people were on the balcony floor, reaching down through the railing trying to grab the cord from people in the pit. They didn’t seem able to reach even when jumping. So I saw this fellow who must’ve been the tallest guy in the place make his way over, and he passed the cord up to the reaching arms with ease (seen in video). A lot of people were probably unaware, just enjoying the music, but it was such a fucking triumphant moment. I felt the wholesome unity the band preaches at that concert. what lovely people.
First time I've seen them look exhausted, they are playing almost every night and have done all year, I'm going to see them in November in Spain and they will have probably done 2 Million shows by then. By far the best band of today! Love how raw yet tight they are. Pure brilliance in my opinion 👍
The Ramones played a lot too, with no recognition, stress inside the band, in small dirty bars, all riffs strummed down, drugs and alcohol problems, no internet exposition, no social webs spreads their music to involved new fans into a crew arround the world and there they are, deads and stoned at the Olympia of rocknroll.
Hands down, the FUCKING BEST ACT you can see today anywhere in the world. A religious experience, an instant addictive crush. No one is as generous on stage as these blokes. All my Love.
I hyper-extended by left thumb when viking guy jumped on us and rolled over. Damn right I STAYED. Coffee Breakers showed up too... Hugs and Fist Bumps!!!!
I gauranfuckingtee you if you approached the band outside the show while they were loading merch or gear or wtv and explained, they'd prob get u in for free as part of their group or at least guest listed, they just seem like those kinda dudes. Spread the chi right? Especially if u help carry some gear, bartyr ya know just take care of eachother it's really not that hard. Y'all woulda just been makeshift roadies. It flat out does NOT get more genuine than this fucking band. Shame to know we could live in such beautiful times if ppl like this were on the front lines of all the places they'd never step food sadly and somehow score jobs in the buildings they'd love to watch burn to Ash and rubble just to fuck it up from the inside buuuuut couldn't agree more, love beats everything when it's true, real, unconditional, when you'd step in front of a bullet to save a mother you've never met. Love, man. And women! And wtv you identify as that's your business and those of you will never be lesser because of it. Or, sometimes love is a curb stomp lol, what can you do. Once every five or six years give or take a band comes along that I truly feel can start a fucking revolution and no question about it these guys are on the list, PUP is on the list, Against Me! Can still stir the fuckin pot ("idk man after reinventing axel rose they just kinda........." Gets knocked out by Jeff Rosenstock haha. Sry just the first person I could picture never throwing a punch ever. Jeff's on that least duhhhh. AJJ!!!! Fuckin a! It'll either Idles or AJJ that write the end of the world's soundtrack, not to be bias living in AZ but I think Sean, Ben, Preston, Mark and drummer that should be me already did with "Good Luck Everybody." "Dazing lackadaisically in this bubble where I've made my mental home. Connections more important now than it ever was but I'd rather be alone." Fuuuuck, Sean!! Get out of our heads. Be safe, look after your strangers and then wash your hands..
This gig might be as good as their Glastonbury gig! Incredible!!!! My love for this band came out of a sudden and grows every day! Thank you, IDLES, for being your true self!!!
I just have say that your band is a mazing. I watch or start my day listening to you. Your band would be referred to us as a noise band. for example: Jesus lizard, unsane, the cows, god head silo. These are older noise bands that are very much looked up to. Keep up the great work. Stacy McMahan
AAAhhhhh!!!! im here!!! to write this ( after three attempts, numerous downstairs to coffee,,bong hits...a sad fuckin day but yeah its okay kinda day,,, a kablooeykeyboard , and the deep emotional , spiritual,unbelieavably simmetrical to all sums ofwhatever the fuck these 40 year old feet broiled into. truly, my blood brothers!! im here to say this - recommended daily regiment for for fuckin ever man ! to be a better fuckin human being and to love the life in all!!! Danny ne fuckin delko temple man!!!!! minneapolis!!! fuckin unreal !!! all of you i carry with me with the same thoughts thats in the air around you lot @ the current ! much much much love to ALL of YOUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the building too!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Funny you sensor sh*t but not fucking.
What the fuck is he talking about. Wanky pretentious nonsense. Great music though.
That was an amazing show. I’ve been to hundreds of shows at First Avenue over the last 25 years and I can say that room hasn’t seen anything like this in a very, very long time.
Punk is not dead, it just Idles.
Just got into idles impress how long they bn going ?
I call it new Punk.
Pretty sure they've said they're not a punk band.
Lots of
Bands eschew labels, but they are def a punk band.
What a show. It was HOT in there. Everything was alive. Everything was wet. Everything was amazing.
It always so hot in there! The only time I've ever fainted was at first ave.
Colussus live was one the scarier experiences I've had in my life, highly recommend it :D
goosebumps every time

Yeah..MOTHER was all over the place.. even drummer was off. But still rocks...
Just a heads up it was unbelievable hot in there, they still managed to rock the place!
The Ramones played a lot too, with no recognition, stress inside the band, in small dirty bars, all riffs strummed down, drugs and alcohol problems, no internet exposition, no social webs spreads their music to involved new fans into a crew arround the world and there they are, deads and stoned at the Olympia of rocknroll.
In the top 5 concerts of all time. This show was something else.
Surely you were born a couple years ago
So good. So fun. Legendary. This band at this venue. The energy is undeniable... it proves we are alive and well. Please keep it going IDLES.
This has made me smile. It's been a long time since I've seen them live. Roll on Brixton in January
Back on night shift and watching again, larverly. Can't wait to get home and watch it again with the Wife and kids!!!
i love how every time they play colossus they make just a little bit slower
That song was insane
Hands down, the FUCKING BEST ACT you can see today anywhere in the world. A religious experience, an instant addictive crush. No one is as generous on stage as these blokes. All my Love.

Thanks for catching me
I must’ve been the only person under 21 there, and I spent over $150 to be able to go, but it was surely the best show of my life so far
Jack eisenman there were a few more of us youngins in there, but yeah the audience was way older than I expected

Born and raised in Minnesota so a bit biased but First Ave is THE best venue ever!
I LOVE THE PERFORMANCE OF DANNY NEDELKO
