Idles - Ultra Mono

Following the worldwide critical acclaim of Brutalism (2017) and Joy as an Act of Resistance (2018), IDLES return with their highly anticipated third album Ultra Mono. Sonically constructed to capture the feel of a hip-hop record (including a production contribution from Kenny Beats), the album adds to the vitriolic sneer and straightforward social commentary of their past work. Not far beneath the surface of their self-confessed sloganeering lies a deeply complex and brutally relevant album that chews up clichés and spits them out as high art for the masses. This is momentary self-acceptance. This is Ultra Mono.
