Brutalism

The Bristol punks' debut LP is refreshingly down-to-earth, jam-packed with humour, and more ferocious than a rabid dog.

As vital as it is volatile.

If there is a manifesto to be found on the debut album from Bristolian post-punk quintet Idles it's that if they don't like you, they'll let you know.

An album that perfectly marries angst, wit, and beauty. Review by Javi Fedrick
