Joy as an Act of Resistance

Idles · 2018

Joy as an Act of Resistance is Idles' second album, released in 2018. After scrapping material that felt too dependent on repeating Brutalism, the band made vulnerability a central purpose. Joe Talbot's personal experiences sit beside songs addressing masculinity, immigration and class.
