New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Last month saw IDLES release their brand new album CRAWLER - their fourth in as many years and the follow-up to their first No. 1, 2019's Ultra Mono. Met with widespread acclaim, the album was produced by IDLES' Mark Bowen alongside Kenny Beats and marked a real turning point in the evolution of the band, adding a whole new dimension to the music the Bristolian five piece make. Following the soul soaked comeback single "The Beachland Ballroom" and the abrasive "Car Crash" today they release new single "When The Lights Come On". With it's motorik rhythm and propulsive bass lines the track harks back to the days when frontman and lyricist Joe Talbot would DJ in Bristol clubs until the early hours, chasing the party into the night only to be confronted by the harsh realities that turning the lights on can expose.
Speaking about the track Talbot writes:
"When the lights come on. Our third offering from Crawler. A poem of light and sound exploring the cold light of day. Thank you x"
