IDLES have released a video for their new single Car Crash, another glimpse into their forthcoming album Crawler

It’s the horrific, comedown hangover – waking up in the morning and realising the smashes, like, what the fuck am I doing with my life?” says frontman Joe Talbot
 
We wanted it to be as violent as possible to reflect that event. I really wanted it to be this sonic touchstone,” adds guitarist and co-producer Mark Bowen. “We recorded the drums beforehand and put them on a vinyl acetate. Whenever you replay an acetate, because it is kind of like a liquid, it degrades every time. It touches on things being transient and momentary — even a single drum hit. It’s like a memory, when the moment has passed and you deal with the repercussions over and over again, and they morph and change into something else. It’s one of the first times on an Idles song where we used proper effects on the vocals — it was Joe going through my pedal board, so you get both clarity and degradation.

Crawler is due for release on 12th November 2021 via Partisan Records, available to pre-order HERE

IDLES have also announced an album release show at London’s EartH on 18th November 2021, which has now sold out.

The band will be touring across the UK and Europe in support of Crawler in 2022.
