Hello everyone! we're glad you enjoyed this interview as much as we did. Just stopping by to say that Issue One of Groovy Tunes Magazine is here! Visit bit.ly/2HnWexH to pick up a copy and help support the channel!
'Joy' is a way of life. No exaggeration when I say I listen to it 4 or 5 times a week for the past 2 months. It helps me feel better, happier, less alone. Thank you, Idles.
He comes across as incredibly vulnerable, someone that wears his heart on his sleeve. Seems like a genuine, caring human being. My whole family watched the Glastonbury set in awe and fell in love with the band, sensibilities and politics on point, they can play, they're piss funny.
You're a poor judge of character then. One can immediately see this guy's a smug narcissist; the way he indulges in every word he utters, the slow aloof way he talks because he's so absorbed in himself, his fake virtue signaling and moral judgements of social issues(of which he has a childlike understanding of) that he only cares about because he thinks doing so makes him a good person, etc. If you don't believe/agree with me, then consider this: Why did he bring up the fact that the city of Bristol (or rather the elite mercantile class of Bristol during a certain period) was involved in the slave trade? How is that tidbit of information really relevant or worth noting in that conversation he was having? It wasn't. He brought it up as a form of randomly thrown in (and very pointless) righteous indignation. Think on that for a minute. For me, a good way I like to use to spot a narcissist is that when they talk about themselves, you'll never see them crack a smile, and it's because, I think, they're unable to laugh at themselves or engage in self deprecation because they take themselves so seriously. Guy's a narcissistic prick, and I for one think he can go fuck off.
One of the best bands today and so underappreciated. Listen to them when I workout and just blast it in the bedroom whenever I'm at home. I'm 19 and I'm so happy this band exists
Because of this Interview I bought and read The Descent Of Man. And I am really glad I did. Thanks for the recommendation! I can only encourage everyone despite of gender or political view to read the book. It really broadens ones mind.
The best city I have lived in. Sometimes asked myself why did I leave. Saw the birth of kosheen whilst I was there. Saw Tons Of Sound Systems Entertaining Ravers. Saw diversity in action. Had one of the best periods of me loif evvah.!
These guys are my new favourite band, every word of every song is something I relate to in terms I understand. Bristol is the only place in UK to live also :)
I’ve never been to Bristol but I did make friends with a local Bristol couple whilst I was on holiday once, lovely couple and they spoke of the place just how he described it here, it’s a place on the map nobody talks about unless you are from there or ever been there. Thanks for this interview it was interesting and this guy has clearly lived a life not to different from a lot of people out there, it’s always great when a band have passion and a story to tell behind their music. Good luck for the future lads.
London has suffered by the hands of Boris and the Tories there are only a few of us original londoners left trying to be creative & authentic, there are some roots londoners still here fighting off the rich arrogant tossers taking over.
Honestly, if your looking for a weekend away for a bit of culture, history and a bloody great night out with just about every type of music there is, get your ass to Bristol.
Idles is not just a band. They’re wizards, it’s a spell band. they cast spells to the audience through the music. There’s clearly a draw to this band that is uncontrollable once you let the sounds pour into your ears.
After going to see them for the first time live , this is the best explanation ever . I can’t remember much of it apart from being sucked into the heart of it and it being completely wild 🤣
Hello, everyone! English is my second language and it's been impossible for me to figure out the name of the book he mentions when asked about toxic masculinity. Could anyone help me with the reference, please? The rest of the interview I got it pretty well 😂
@Big Rock ah what?! he doesn´t?! Does this mean Bob Marley didnt shoot the sheriff?! Lemmy wasn´t really the sword OR the game?! Pipe down you f*cking melt,, crawl back under your ´big rock´
Can someone tell me better what's the name and the author of the book he is talking about when he starts speaking about toxic masculinity, please? Thank you very much! :)
I agree with joe on the fact that you shouldn't attack people to win them over to your way of thinking as it doesn't work its also good to acknowledge both sides of an argument/disagreement to work together, insinuating people are racists or stupid etc in a backhanded manor doesn't help. Also nobody knows yet whether this country is going to be better or worse for leaving the eu long term. Opinions are not facts

"There's a hunger for honesty and a bit of violence, but with love behind it" So well put, so true.
Exactly!!! Perfectly expressed ☺️🙌
The way he nonchalantly mentions his daughter died is heartbreaking
Yea, poor bloke
Man, yeah this broke me
Their new album is the best record of the year, easily
You've listened to every release this year?
PIG CHAMP yes, all of them
Champ? of all pigs? ALL of them? Doubt it
@@rpoll613 he's a guitarist thicko, look it up
Nah... polyphia, handsome jack, or daughters
Great band, better album, even better show, and the best and most honest frontman you could ask for. Everything about Idles is top tier.
So true!!! Couldn't agree more 😊🙌❤❤
He has a very calming presence

He also wears an image of a pedophile on his sleeve in tattoo form.

His description of Bristol is pretty beautiful
Pretty accurate too. Lived there for 12 years :)
best city in the world. Big up Brizzle wouldn't want to be from anywhere else
@@felixking9151 I moved country because I hate the UK. If I could pick up Bristol and move it to another country I would do.
@@felixking9151 yes mate love being from Bristol
@Unism Rochdale and Rotherham. Yeah beautiful places that show how well multi culturism and diversity works eh
Simply the best punk band around right now. No bs to be found in anything they do
you may like middle class rut
That was a cracking interview. Thank you.
I'm so happy to have discovered this band the other day.
Same! Watched their Glasto set and now a massive fan
Top bloke, top band.
One of the best bands today and so underappreciated. Listen to them when I workout and just blast it in the bedroom whenever I'm at home. I'm 19 and I'm so happy this band exists
so many potential lyrics in that video
Because of this Interview I bought and read The Descent Of Man. And I am really glad I did. Thanks for the recommendation! I can only encourage everyone despite of gender or political view to read the book. It really broadens ones mind.
Very positive vibe from this band, love it.
Post-ramen talking is a nightmare. relatable guy.
Such an articulate, discerning, intelligent and compassionate man.
Props to the editor for putting the perfect tracks to this at the perfect time at a good background volume 🙌🙌
Amazing interview, actual in-depth stuff which you don't normally get. Fantastic band.
Man, I just stumbled onto these guys couple of days ago. Cant get enough. Real musicians with a message, rare these days.

Wow - what a lovely bloke!

The best city I have lived in. Sometimes asked myself why did I leave. Saw the birth of kosheen whilst I was there. Saw Tons Of Sound Systems Entertaining Ravers. Saw diversity in action. Had one of the best periods of me loif evvah.!
Words of a gentle wise soul. Love you mate
He summed up my thoughts on masculinity perfectly. I’ll definitely have to read that book now...
BadBurt86 the descent of man by Grayson perry
such an incredible band
I love this man he is such an inspiration.
Cheers for making me cry
great interview! Joe is so articulate + magnetic, wow.
These guys are my new favourite band, every word of every song is something I relate to in terms I understand. Bristol is the only place in UK to live also :)
I love this man.

justin hickman it’s like Pennsylvania’s Marcus Hook
Love this so much, but he passed over the amazing Bristol math rock scene
I think you are all amazing. come to Chicago!
I’m late af but I’m glad I found this band
"standard London tosh" fucking love this fella.
Greets from the Underground of Holland Idles! ;)
they are back in Bristol next week - the gig sold out FAST
London has suffered by the hands of Boris and the Tories there are only a few of us original londoners left trying to be creative & authentic, there are some roots londoners still here fighting off the rich arrogant tossers taking over.
London was fucked by new labour as much as anything else
Never ever apologise for eating ramen.
As much as I am sceptical of their music, this guy does actually have some really good thoughts on his mind. I might give them another go 😌
Nice, how did it go?
@@dice7584 Not too well, the message is good the medium/music is just not me to be quite honest
Im in love
Good man, much love
Honestly, if your looking for a weekend away for a bit of culture, history and a bloody great night out with just about every type of music there is, get your ass to Bristol.
"Breakthroughs for breakfast" Ace interview.
A conversation between Joe and Russel Brand would be a most enjoyable and fruitful thing.
Joe seems sincere and genuine and Brand is a neo lib ass hat, how could that be?
Amazing interview, real talk.
Idles is not just a band. They’re wizards, it’s a spell band. they cast spells to the audience through the music. There’s clearly a draw to this band that is uncontrollable once you let the sounds pour into your ears.

Agree!!! ☺️👏👏🔥
hunh?
all is love.
the message.
Nice descriptive there. makes them even better.
The more i find out about em, the more i like em!!
Hey from Canada!
Beautiful
Love You Man
This man is real
Canada is a very nice place!
When I go on about men being the problem eg violence against women, I get people saying 'but this one guy was beaten up by his wife in 2002' etc
great vid
Breakthroughs are for breakfast ❤️
I love this man haha!
This is fucking beautiful.

Being masculine is good, balance is important, yin and yang.
Anyone knows, where can i find that hat?
It's a 90s mickey mouse flying aces snapback, might find one on etsy
@@remotefaith thanks Sir!
Great interview but he's wrong about Bristol not doing anything new in recent years; it's a world leader in club music, especially techno/dub/breaks
