IDLES are celebrating the fifth anniversary of their debut album with a new reissue, titled Five Years of Brutalism, that will be out December 9 via Partisan. It's been pressed on cherry red vinyl with new sleeve art and is limited to 10,000 copies worldwide. Preorder yours.
“What started as a headstone slab of indulgence and unrest became a long journey of beauty, forgiveness, and gratitude," say the band. "Little did we know that it was not just a headstone but the foundations we were building, for a house full to the brim with loving human beings. Thank you so so much.”
The vinyl comes with a deluxe digital version of Five Years of Brutalism that includes a full recording of IDLES' surprise performance of the album at the BBC Introducing Stage at this year's Glastonbury festival. You can listen to "1049 Gotho" from that below now.
IDLES have spent most of 2022 on tour and wrap up their year with Australia and New Zealand shows this month. All dates are listed below.
