I was going to say "Where are the swear words?!?" then I was like "Oh yeah....BBC." *flashback of Zack De La Rocha screaming "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me." on air. *

[@jerryramsey4236]

That's the sound of strength and numbers! Loved "IDLES" from the very beginning they just keep moving along even stronger!

[@Highandidle81]

The rawness of Rage against the machine with poetic vision of a Wordsworth on acid, in contrast to everything else these fearless men are a breath of fresh air and some may be intimidated by their catharsis expressionism but I for one welcome it with open arms and sink into it willingly. Hopefully I will be in Belfast on the thrith of June to witness the greatest band on the planet at this moment.

[@davidanalog]

I just described them Rage Against the Machine if it were comprised of robots doing their best impression of The Clash. That’s not an insult or anything, these guys rip.

[@MrCiccionumberone]

Ho aavuto la fortuna di vederli dal vivo in Italia quaest'estate... sono meravigliosi !!! uno dei gruppi piu' iunteressanti degli ultimi anni ... \m/

Sounds like The Fall

[@RataStuey]

I’ve not listened to the fall much.. which song does this sound like?

[@dingdong6069]

@@RataStuey The Fall were a law unto themselves. In fact until Idles came along I would have said no one sounds like The Fall. It's the whole sound and even approach as opposed to any song but Idles are that bit more 'muscular' and maybe 'harder', if that makes any sense??? Maybe try 'Hey Student' or 'I am Damo Suzuki' but there are countless other examples you could just try at random. See if you like them?

[@n3r0n3]

sounds a little like a car crash between swans and the fall but very cool indeed... and u would not catch me staring at the sun either by the way ;)
