@jofustablet freaked out when I said I wasn’t going to set up monitors. Luckily he trusted me to at least try it. I’m so grateful we got to capture this raw performance in a style that often takes performers out of their comfort zone, but challenges them in ways they never thought possible. Together we created something their fans have never heard before, and that differentiates from everything else they’ve ever done. That’s the magic. #idles IDLES

IDLES
IDLES emerged from Bristol’s vibrant independent music scene. Their debut album Brutalism established their intense post-punk sound and confrontational performance style. The band combine distorted guitars, driving rhythms and Joe Talbot’s distinctive vocal delivery. Their lyrics frequently address personal experiences, relationships and social issues. With albums such as Joy as an Act of Resistance., Ultra Mono, Crawler and TANGK, they have continued to expand their musical palette. TANGK introduced a more melodic and openly emotional dimension while retaining the band’s characteristic intensity.

Today is the beginning of a long exhale. Today I announce There Will Be Pain, There’s Beauty Here - an album I’ve spent the better part of the 2020s living, writing, performing and recording.

@shorediverecords will be putting out the album on both CD and Vinyl. Pre-orders will be open shortly, so keep an eye out for that.

The release (and relief) will come on November 6, 2026.

There Will Be Pain, There’s Beauty Here documents my time as a songwriter and musician struggling to find an audience, and taking extreme measures to do so. Nothing about this process has been easy, but I do think this is the strongest piece of art I’ve put out into the world, and that’ll live forever.

Throughout this process I have been blessed with so many dedicated collaborators who have had to deal with the dozens of messages, long phone calls, video chats filled with my excitement, my insecurities, my pride, my doubts, and (hopefully) my passion for this project.

To the two main collaborators who helped bring this together: Alex on the sound side, and Madii (@madisonkaylynne of @sometimes__studio__), on the visual front, THANK YOU both for your steadfast dedication, your creativity and your knowledge that helped make this project a reality.

As the single releases have probably already made clear, There Will Be Pain, There’s Beauty Here has MANY featured creatives I am blessed to call my friends contribute to both the music and visual language of the album.
