IDLES perform Samaritans on Later... with Jools Holland

[@BonHomie87]

I hope these dudes never runs out of things to scream at me.

[@Jalegre]

If we continue to be shit humans, they won't run out of material.

[@SiSi-xg1hk]

I truly appreciate every time this man yells at me, " *LOVE YOURSELF!!!* "

[@olbeef250]

It’s just the hipster version of bbc news

[@TonchoBluegrass]

There's something extremely satisfying with dealing with problems of masculinity, very aggressively.

[@MikeyPowell]

haha! yeah, I feel it should be done in a Keith Harris and Orville kinda way ;)

[@theinnersleeves3871]

Fight toxic masculinity with proper masculinity

[@mynameismark25]

need more cool people and bands talking and singing about this sort of thing man. so many men are trapped inside themselves.

[@johnr8820]

Yeah if you're 14

[@goldbluetears]

@@johnr8820 yeah its the mask of masculinity! Its not real its an illusion!

[@danieljamesmead]

Imagine being stood there, a member of the Lumineers, watching this and then the camera swings to you and it’s your turn to sing that hey ho my sweetheart song.

[@jenscamera1042]

holy shit I laughed so hard man, thanks for that

[@GeniusLad32]

Sam Smith was on doing one of his bs ballads and it suddenly swung round to Slaves. So good.

[@mattbrewer960]

As a fan of both bands this was hilarious

[@jackholesun]

It's bad enough just being in the lumineers. God help them all.

[@charliegotosleep]

@@jackholesun Fuck my friend dragged me to a Lumineers concert a few months ago. I was like how bad can it be? It was bad...

[@natewall4500]

Bowen's pain of having to wear trousers is translated beautifully into his guitar in this performance

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

It doesn't look right.

[@spiritualconnection4807]

Their drummer must be one of the best at the moment because every groove he does is catchy, captivating and creative

[@telephonic]

I agree , he's brilliant.

[@scott1853]

Steve Shelly enters the chat

[@BRobMorris]

You mean their accountant?

[@daviedovey]

IDLES write songs that can change people's minds

[@inspectionnegross8695]

Idles write songs that fit the narrative that BBC are pushing... Leftist/Socialist thought is good, multiculturalism is good. Globalism...you'll never hear these lads sing songs about being proudly White and English.

[@jamieconway4692]

Fontaines DC. They're not that similar in sound, but have a similar punk attitude. And they're Irish

[@daviedovey]

yeah, just like that @@alan6

[@daviedovey]

they're oirish (although the guitarist looks Spanish) my gig buddy thinks they're an Irish version of Shame but I think they're darker @@jamieconway4692

[@Louid133]

They're not irish, the guitarist with the mustache is irish but the rest of the band are from bristol

[@grandassassin24]

I get an indescribable rush of emotion in the "I kissed a boy and I liked it" breakdown. Joe screaming down the camera, Bowen and Lee going absolutely mental and Dev swinging his enormous head about the gaff. Brings a tear to my eye every time.

[@nodairyclefairy265]

Same. First time I heard it, made me cry. They translate the frustration and then the joy of acceptance really well.

[@michelesegatto7495]

I d cry everytime I come back to this

[@carriekmms]

It is beautiful

[@johnklsc2233]

It's a joke he done, but I understand also done the same

[@chriss1587]

The most important band in the UK right now, utterly astonishing. Pure music.

[@shakey215]

In the world, in my opinion

[@matthewcordell8332]

Pure lukewarm shit for edgy students and young fathers. With beards.

[@gogolplex74]

Imagine thinking that a band that keeps repeating the opinions of Guardian writers and Blue Checkmarks is important lmao

[@cloudlounge3710]

well said!...

Vomiting the exact nonsense you hear on every tv.......astonishing

[@teresagomes6491]

That "pipe down!" ( 3:29) send shivers down my spine.

[@lolagrace3953]

he looks genuinely angry

[@keithbiggins5839]

A perfect example of 4 members playing in harmony and a singer delivering perfect lyrics with an epic ending with a deep meaning that you can feel from all 5 that makes this band what they are a sheer delight and joy to whiteness.

[@adityarajan7]

Love how they mess with the tempo. Makes the vocals hit you harder.

[@gmmcollects124]

This band changed my life.

[@dandedon90]

this song is so good that it made my father cry

[@clacclackerson3678]

I heard this band for the first time last night. Today I introduced them to my 15 year old son, it had to be done.

[@hansy3]

Badass.

[@beanie1089]

I dont correlate being angry with something to simply just being angry to be destructive. Anger can be righteous. And it can be a major catalyst for productivity, constructive change. Reminds me a bit of RATM, the concept of just a thresher of a band producing this amount of sound to state that things need to change. Aggression is needed, sometimes in desperate measure, to call attention to things that can and should change, especially things that are being affronted by popular culture, and especially when the meaning or the very existence of the thing/feeling is being threatened by ignorance or something far more toxic. It's perfectly agreeable to rage against toxic femininity and toxic masculinity.

[@alexd9999999]

...Anger can be power, do you know that you can use it?

[@beanie1089]

@@alexd9999999 Of course. That's kinda what I wrote there. Righteous anger. It's a force for good, the betterment of the self. Anger can be constructive. Yessir.

[@pedalfatty394]

Like Gojira. Check out Toxic Garbage Island.

[@SiSi-xg1hk]

As a woman, I can appreciate that it be acknowledged that there is toxicity in both traditional masculine & feminine tropes. Glad to have bands like Idles bringing up the conversation.

[@jonascarrillo8699]

I coruous. What is toxic feminity?

[@RataStuey]

Love this band. A band closer to the original punk bands of the late 70s than any other band I can think of right now. Actually writing about real things and being properly provocative. They mean it.

[@Noelito40]

They have an integrity and an honesty that I hope they never lose.

[@martynhardy5583]

No punk band from the 70s or any other time can hold a candle

[@James-ql9wy]

I don't think enough people realise how important this song is

[@echopit166]

One of the most killer drum beats ever!! I also love how this version is slightly slower than the album version, suits the song much better 👌🏼🤘🏼

[@Darthyoof]

More done in three minutes about mental heath than the gov has done in thirty years, big up the idles

[@OurRawHeart]

"I kissed a boy and I like it" has got to be the greatest fucking PUNK line ever written.

[@richardhanlon8358]

I love the honesty of the lyrics , the rawness of human emotions perfectly expressed in the most visceral way in the world wide communication.... Music❤

[@Poppyscaps]

Yes. I love that they chose this song to bring on to Jools Holland. It is so important. I love them so very much!!

[@ahchisahchis]

I think I'm in love with these guys.

[@pauldavidlewis1967]

These guys are just a very special band, probably the best in the world.

[@CoopDuck]

It’s a pity Jools didn’t insist on playing some gratuitous boogie woogie all over this.

[@barrydduggan]

How has this comment gone un noticed?, lol

Saw these guys live in new york couple months ago got a neato shirt got absolutely crushed from how packed the venue was kicked in the head from all the crowd surfing and was absolutely the best time. Love these guys.

[@nave94]

This is such a beautiful song and performance. What a band.

[@steviesavage]

best band I've seen for many years - 21st century punk for those who missed it all the first time around!

[@doug8356]

idles have got to be among one the most important bands since the invention of music!!!!

[@NineteenEighty8]

never seen so much raw charisma from a indie-punk bank. these guys are like pirates of the rock world.

[@flynnieflynnie1660]

Makes me cry . Yet again idles have made me weep

[@RegularDude00]

I'm shaking , love this band. absolute beasts

[@PlanetCustard]

Utter gold performed at a level beyond the other side

[@taglor]

I often watch this to remember Natasha and see her keeping on playing. I was lucky enough to see her and Alain as Chris Cornell's band in 99'. They were beasts, cool beasts.

[@GefJam1]

and I love it that they got a mention on BBC Radio 4s 'Thought for the Day'

[@Dimension50]

This band are a breathe of beautiful Bristol air. I live in Glasgow and I for one am crying out for more bands like IDLES

[@aeromacin]

Punk is relative to the times. This band is as real as it gets , I KISSED A BOY AND I LIKE IT!!!!!!

[@Doininit]

Reminds me of At the Drive on jools years back!! great energy!

Currently my new favorite. Creative. Explorative. Actually punk. Refreshing

Great Band. Been following Bristol UK music for a while now. So much talent. Huge shout from the US. Loving Idles and other Bristol acts like Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky, Roni Size, DJ Krust, AllFlaws

[@milesmason1343]

That's exactly what I thought....

[@GingerNights]

Not familiar with the Sleaford Mods. 🤔

[@adsensedd]

Next generation punk where they actually talk about the problems in the world like toxic masculinity. Men need to be able to be vulnerable and share their emotions. Too much bottling up emotions which leads to violence and suicide.

[@Sumday]

So true! "Man up, bottle it up!" That's the shit that'll always eventually end up in the news. If men aren't supposed to be "afraid of anything", why are they always so afraid of their own feelings?

This is a band that has found a way to turn EVERYTHING up waaaaaaaay past 10!!!!!! They are the sonic ...& emotional...equivalent of a nuclear explosion. IF the NFL half-time show could ever evolve to accomodate an Idles performance...just imagine the world we would be living in! Unthinkable yeah...but just imagine! I see a band like the Idles...and I see hope.

[@chloemcdermott2978]

Love this band a lot 😍

[@tyrant351]

another observations: Since folks are comparing this to the Lumineers, Both bands represent very different ends of the music industry. The Lumineers’ aesthetic is that folksy come-together vibe and the peaceful small-town life where you can daydream and live happily with your neighbors, and a lot of people, deep down, really want that. They paint a fantasy. IDLES is very fucking grounded. They pull no punches and if anything they’ll punch you harder for not listening.

[@Darktangle]

"The mask of masculinity. It's a mask that is wearing me" very profound!

[@christianallan4555]
