A striking and thought-provoking collaboration between IDLES frontman Joe Talbot and artist Magda Archer, containing all the lyrics from IDLES' first album Brutalism alongside provocative artwork by Archer. Toxic masculinity. Class divisions. Mental health. Bristol-formed band IDLES started recording their first album, Brutalism, in 2015. In the two years that followed, frontman Joe Talbots mother passed away, resulting in a turbulent state of grief that would come to shape the verbally blazon and emotionally raw album that then appeared in 2017. In the seven years since the release of Brutalism, Talbots words, in the context of the bands music, have grown to represent a liberated show of vulnerability and an aggressive response to the societal masculine ideal of silencing and withholding emotion. IDLES first ever book marks a new and exciting form of creative collaboration for the band. Breathing a different kind of life into Talbots fiery lyricism with expressive typography, hot-pink ink and Magda Archers unique artworks it shows that a book can be a work of art in itself. In this celebration and reinterpretation of the bands first album, Magda Archers artwork enters a joyful and liberating shouting match with Talbots lyrics an unexpected and bold conversation between two like-minded artists.
