I'm in the US and have been listening to IDLES for some years now and I still dig the raw energy. Then last year, I discovered Sleaford and saw it as a stripped down, minimalist version of a similar musical direction. I think it's possible to dig them both without needing to be philosophical about it.

Idles has been a massive help to me mentally during this pandemic and bouts of depression. I'm not as fond of the last album as the previous one, it's a bit too simplistic for my taste. Never Fight a Man With a Perm was my most listened track from last year, Grounds was #6 and Danny Nedelko made the top 10 as well. I don't understand feuds and slagging off other bands, it's so ridiculous to me, but people are obviously free to express their opinions and criticize whoever they please. I think every band faces the inevitable "they've sold out" stage in their careers, if being more popular with each new album means selling out. Bruce Springsteen made a career from working class music spanning decades while never being a working class man himself, the message and the songs don't have any less of an impact. How he talked about that in the Springsteen on Broadway Netflix thing was funny. I live in a one room apartment, I've done physical labor for most of my life and I listen to both of these bands. I'm still relatively new to Sleaford Mods, but I'm glad they plan to come to Estonia, I hope. Anyway, all that matters is how the music makes me feel and it makes me feel good. It's out of your hands, so feuds are a waste of energy. Just do your own thing. You can't even control what song a fan considers your best or their personal favorite. The artist itself may hate that song, like it's the worst song they've ever written, but it could be someone's favorite. Is that wrong? Of course not, cos it's no longer your song, it's theirs. I'm not going to stop listening to Idles just because someone considers them posers, I'm gonna stop listening to them when they stop growing as artists.

I agree 100% with everything you said here. I don't really know much about Sleaford Mods other than the fact that they exist (so I could be wrong about what I'm about to say), but I think that the thing you said about "It's out of your hands, so feuds are a waste of energy" says a lot about Jason's state of mind. The only people who are willing to put this kind of energy in something they can't control tend to be the jealous type. Instead of trying to outdo the one band he doesn't like (the same band that happens to be the more successful one a this point in time) by putting that same energy into his music, he'd rather just stay where he's at and trash Idles. The only thing that ever happens when you try to drag people down like that, is that you end up dragging yourself down without even realizing it.

Yeah but Merry Berry Loves Idles - Sorry but I can't disagree with him any more about the Idles thing. So what if they're not working class, they're still voicing an opinion, a good one of that and discuss issues that need to be brought up. If anything for me, it's even better they're sending this message if they're not working class. I think there's a little bit of salt here, he just doesn't like them and that's fair enough

It's insulting and patronising. Doesnt matter if whoever is saying it is covered in a shit load of tattoo work or swears alot in the lyrics. If you're not bothered, fair enough.

I love Sleaford Mods, Idles and Slaves all for different reasons. But the only one of those bands who have tackled things like rape culture in their songs, as far as I’m aware, is IDLES. I was actually so shocked when I first listened to Mother and first heard the lyrics “Sexual violence doesn’t start and end with rape, it starts in our books and behind our school gates, men are scared women will laugh in their face whereas women are scared it’s their lives men will take”. Like hearing this dude saying that was so shocking for me as I’m a survivor of abuse and the only other song I could think of that made me feel the same way is Red Jumpsuit Aparatus - Face Down. I respect all the bands but I think I feel safest and most respected at an Idles gig than any of the others. Ive been assaulted many times at gigs over the years and my youngest experience was when I collapsed at a Black sabbath concert age 16. There is a lot of abusers in the scene and when bands make statements like this it lets the people know who’s welcome and who’s not. I’ve seen Slaves twice (one of these times I got creeped on by a big sweaty dude who kept putting his arm round me) and I’ve seen Sleaford Mods once and still to see IDLES next year but I can’t wait. Their music means so much to me as it does to many many other people.

I get that. After I got to listen to IDLES more and more, I felt like many of the songs and their themes were a bit on the nose, if that makes sense. For example, Jason can portray the theme of a song with a lot more nuance which gives all his songs more depth and meaning, also some of the stuff he says is just flat-out hilarous. "Boris on a bike quick, knock the cunt over" springs to mind lol. For me, knowing that took away some of the impact that IDLES song had on me originally. I still like them tho. Can't wait to see them live once this covid shite is out of the way. I need to experience Danny Nedelko live before I die lol.

I'm an Idles and Sleaford Mods fan. I think putting another band down and starting feuds on social does not cover Sleaford Mods in glory, and he comes across as being envious of Idles success. It's not pretty listening to this and I find it disappointing. It's all art and subjective after all, and if I was lucky enough to be in Sleaford Mods position my prime focus would be on creating amazing tracks, and not giving a damn about what any other band is doing. Idles songs are about Joe's mental health, his demons and his idealistic outlook on life. Where he is now and how he thinks is what he will write about, like any artist. Idles have a rare edge and they do stand out from the crowd. The music and lyrics have helped me and its rare I get excited by new music, but I have for Idles and for Sleaford Mods, who also have their own unique edge. I think his comment on how Joe talks really comes down to the idiocy of the UK class discrimination and culture here in blighty. SL should focus on the art and not being a bitter old bastard.

I love both IDLES and Sleaford Mods, and have listened to each artist extensively. They both have their own unique way of expressing their art, and I respect the messages both bands have put into their music. This dude might have some valid opinions (or not), but, regardless of IDLES virtues and class standing... I would rather go to a high energy punk show in IDLES, as opposed to standing around bored at a Sleaford Mods gig watching some dude sing slam poetry over a monotonous pre-recorded beat. That being said, I believe that IDLES "Danny Nedelko", and Sleaford Mods' "Nudge It" are both great songs, and it would be neat to see a collaboration one day.

Jason's far from being out on a limb on the Idles thing. Something you'll find is that people can generally tell when people are trying their demographical identity on for size, even if they can't exactly put their finger on it, as seems to be the case with Jason's comments here. It tends to be a lot of smaller things adding up: references to objects (or lack thereof); vocal inflections; lack of topical focus; derivative style. That last point is especially important in regards to Idles: I often feel like they (and, while I'm at it, bands like Shame & Pigsx7) exist primarily to make Steve Lamacq feel young again. They tick those superficial classic rock-punk boxes that the media always loved: guitar-thrashing, voice-straining, basic chord-chugging, sweaty & often shirtless anger, and of course their primary champion would be a radio DJ who literally toured the country in order to continue going on about growing up in the 70s. Thing is all that's been done to death so much that seeing something so imitating feels like their missing the point of 'punk', and the originality that was meant to be implied in that word. It was a different matter for The Clash & all that, because they were around the start of 'punk' shit, before it became a genre and was just the sort of logical conclusion of rock n' roll and left-wing politics in that era. Sleaford Mods, on the other hand, aren't like any other single act I've ever seen or heard.

It’s a complex issue. Idles are a good band, the music sounds good, no reason to believe the lyrics aren’t coming from a genuine place, etc. At the same time I understand Jason’s feelings, coming from a working class background and finding out Idles aren’t feels like the enemy are simultaneously pandering to you whilst stealing your culture. Realistically Jason probably needs to suck it up, get over himself and move on, and should have been more nuanced in his critique. At the same time, Idles should do more to comprehend the reasoning behind why the content of their music is irritating people.

It’s like here in the states with hip hop. If you didn’t have as much struggle as the next person the community will not accept you at all. Which is why we got 20 years of Eminem making song after song/album after album about his existence living in a trailer park with a junkie mom, junkie babies momma drama, being on welfare and food stamps” he had to “prove himself” to have struggled enough for people to take him seriously

Just checked them out after watching this interview; I begrudgingly like a few of their tracks to be fair (Idles) but Williamson is a 100% correct about them here. Statements about being privileged white-men, self indulgent addiction stories, totally misunderstanding Brexit (though the Sleafords are off on this one too). Rather than promoting recovery community models as an inspiration to turn peers into working class community activists and to broaden the model out of services (who focus purely on substance issues rather than on broader sociological factors and broader solutions) and as a means for working class people to build self help community hubs on estates... working class people have achieved this already within the best services (before austerity fucked it all... and the EU via competitive tendering) so they've already proven how they could play a key role in 'proper' community regeneration; rather he goes on about vulnrability and mindfulness and his addiction past in the most self absorbed fashion, and ends up sounding like a soppy twat... though I'm sure the birds love it.

Tend to agree, the bigger Idles have become, the less I enjoy / relate...but this guy sounds pretty middle-class to me also. Are Sleaford Mods any different to the things he's calling Idles out for? Seems slightly bitter to me.

@@occiferkodi If it's true, then it's true. Idles will never make another 'Mother'. Same as QOTSA will never make another 'You Can't Quit...". Biffy, 'Stress on the Sky', 'Jaggy Snake' etc. It's not about trying to be cool, just that bands change and sometimes go in a direction that you no longer like as much. Doesn't mean you're hating on them. For me Brutalism is still the best album, for others maybe not.
