Idles - Joy as an Act of Resistance (New Album)

This may be a bit off-topic with all the politics stuff going on but there’s one bit in the album where he seems to be singing “CONCRETE A LEMON!”

  • Yup, great lyrics eh!
  • No, he’s saying something else (insert below)
  • They lyrics aren’t that, but they should be.
  • You what?

Think there is a lot of jealousy about their success coming out from other bands in various ways, that being one of them.

@Leopardprint thought it was Concrete Eleven, like some sort of soccer team or something

I’ve heard they got a good aggregate result recently

I love their music, but not sure that having a couple of female members can really put LC in a position to call others out like this, they are all white and are from fairly privileged backgrounds. No idea who they have toured with over the years either.

Upcoming us tour/date has Illuminati Hotties and Adult Mum, it seems they toured with Slotface and Muncie Girls after releasing their last album. They do seem to back it up.

Hahaha amazing

Kevin was with Stewart Lee (with long grey beard) and Bridget Christie at the end. Don’t usually starfuck but I was properly happy with that. When I saw Bridget live last week, she left the stage to Danny Nedelko.

Well I’m evangelical enough about this lot already - BUT: it. was. bloody. amazing. Transition to bigger venues was seamless. GOTY for me.

Amazing! Found a few people in the crowd a bit annoying but then I get a bit anxious in big crowds :upside_down_face:

But yeah they were great

Yeah there were a fair share of twats where I was, but weirdly given the vibe of the gig they seemed even more noticeably odious and anachronistic than usual. Hmmm. Always nice to think times could be a-changing… not there yet though obviously
