Our Take

IDLES' latest offering, Joy As An Act Of Resistance, is a tsunami of raw energy and untamed emotion that crashes over you like a bulldozer made of passion and angst. The album kicks off with the punchy "Colossus," a track that hits you square in the face like an angry chip butty hurled across a crowded pub.

From there, we are treated to a rollercoaster of sound and emotion, as lead singer Joe Talbot spits out lyrics with the ferocity of a rabid squirrel on double espressos. Tracks like "Never Fight A Man With A Perm" and "Danny Nedelko" showcase the band's knack for combining frenetic punk energy with socially conscious lyrics that hit harder than a soggy crumpet to the head.

But it's not all doom and gloom with IDLES, as they also deliver some moments of pure joy and catharsis that will have you dancing around your living room like a loon on a pogo stick. The anthemic "Love Song" and the uplifting "Great" are like a warm hug from a drunk mate at closing time.

Overall, Joy As An Act Of Resistance is a wild ride that will leave you emotionally drained, covered in sweat, and grinning from ear to ear. It's like a pint of warm ale on a cold winter's day – it might not be to everyone's taste, but for those who appreciate its unique blend of fury and heart, it's a damn good time. Cheers, IDLES, for another banger of an album.
