More about: Idles

IDLES have embarked on a new era. With the deliciously soulful, doo-wop inspired 'THE BEACHLAND BALLROOM', launched last night, the band announce their fourth album CRAWLER.

Produced by Kenny Beats, who called it "one of my favorite songs I've ever worked on in my entire life", 'THE BEACHLAND BALLROOM' is a wrenching song of sorrow; a grimace against the pain of the world.

Frontman Joe Talbot said of the song: 

“It’s the most important song on the album, really. There's so many bands that go through the small rooms and dream of making it into the big rooms. Being able to write a soul tune like this made me go, fuck -- we’re at a place where we're actually allowed to go to these big rooms and be creative and not just go through the motions and really appreciate what we’ve got. The song is sort of an allegory of feeling lost and getting through it. It's one that I really love singing.”
