TANGK IDLES

2023-10-18 by Raul Stanciu STAFF | 23 Comments
IDLES return with their 5th studio effort, TANGK. Due out on February 16, it will be an album that celebrates love and joy, contrasting their earlier work.

"I needed love. So I made it. I gave love out to the world and it feels like magic. This is our album of gratitude and power. All love songs. All is love."

Regarding the title, the band explained that it's "pronounced “tank” with a whiff of the “g” - an onomatopoeic reference to the lashing way the band imagined their guitars sounding that has since grown into a sigil for living in love".

The first single, "Dancer" is already out. Watch the music video below:



Tracklist:
1. IDEA 01
2. Gift Horse
3. POP POP POP
4. Roy
5. A Gospel
6. Dancer
7. Grace
8. Hall & Oates
9. Jungle
10. Gratitude
11. Monolith

A promotional European tour will start at the end of February, here are the dates: https://www.idlesband.com/tickets/

Haven't since them since like 2017 when they played this small alt festival in Poland and were honestly great, but their ticket prices in 2023 don't really fill me with excitement to see them again

This sounds anonymous compared to their best stuff, not bad just very unexciting. Hoping it makes more sense on the album.

It has grown on me a bit, I love the bass and Joe's delivery is cool, but the chorus is absolutely fucked. It sounds like audio mush and not in a cool noise rock way, I hope it's just an error and doesn't actually sound like that on the album.

What it really reminds me of is Grinderman, especially the first album.
