I was at the 6 music gig when Lamacq was there, it was a free gig. Took a couple of mates... who thought they were shite So, you’re a friend of Archie, then . 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Oil Services Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 They're a bit shouty, for me. Need to take note of Massive Attack, who mostly whispered, and mumbled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyisared Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Grew up loving a lot of punk; the Clash, the Sex Pistols, the Ramones are some of my favourite bands of all time. IDLES are fantastic and one of the only bands that I think can hold the torch of their predecessors in the modern times of Imagine Dragons and Greta van Fleet. Joy as an Act of Resistance is fantastic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Enjoyed that, good episode. Another local band that have a couple of City supporting members are these guys https://open.spotify.com/artist/24s02YIeoztDshwkv7XcRu?si=ntJyQCvaRp6C5-xN9phNQQ Saw them play in Swansea a couple of years ago - really good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Its Smith Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 Massively respect Idles for what they have achieved just not my type of music at all. Completely irrelevant though....a brilliant interview and very interesting to hear band dynamics, how hard they worked and made me reminisce about going to gigs 1-2 times per week in Bristol before having kids put a stop to all that ! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy1968 Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Great interview @Shtanley. I got acquainted with the Idles a bit whilst listening to Radio 6 recently. However due to my advancing years, I couldn't tell you anything about their music except I was impressed enough to look them up on spotify. That drummer sounded a bit like Joe Bryan to me. And the football chat was a bit more on topic than usual without Dave there being an antagonist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 I enjoyed it. My only reservation was when hearing about the band setting a 5 year plan with their record company, with number one album on the list. My naive rock n roll romanticism would have counterculture bands like Idles balk at setting career milestones, but having heard about the long road to their debut album, and the escape from working bars, even a foolish idealist can completely understand the value of 'making it'. Plus, Danny Nedelko is hardly a pop song. They sound like they're in a good place now. Hopefully they'll retain their edge and energy and keep touring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I don’t think Idles are particularly counterculture. A bit of shouting doesn’t stop their music from being commercial and sloganeering. But I don’t think they’ve ever claimed to be originators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chowie Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 About 4 years ago I had the same view as some comments in here, shouty, loud and violent etc. Did not get it at all. Then kept slowly going back to them with songs like Danny, eased myself in via the videos on YouTube and I’m now a huge Idles fan. Love everything about them and what they do, in-fact I think they have altered my taste in music to some degree. Jon’s drumming on Ultra Mono is insane and he’s gonna have to keep fitness up for the tour. wonderful podcast guys, loved it, thank you x 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you give them a proper listen though it's definitely not punk. There are catchy riffs in there and the sound fluctuates from indie to post-punk to grunge.

brady bunch Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 I listened to it last night (for pure lockdown / missing BCFC footy reasons). I did not have a clue who Jon Beavis or the Idols (Idles!) were before the podcast (not surprising really as I am 57 and l now live outside of brizzle), but was pleasantly surprised by it and although it was long, listened to the end and found it really interesting, enjoyed hearing his experiences as a fan combined with his life and work in the music industry. Another great podcast, whatever young Archie thinks of it..... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's plenty of shit working class bands out there with meaningless lyrics and no social awareness. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
