The label's President and Co-Founder, Tim Putnam, leads the team with passion and expertise.

British heavy indie/punk band, IDLES, hails from Bristol, London, and Newport. With Joe Talbot on vocals, Mark Bowen on lead guitar and backing vocals, Lee Kiernan on rhythm guitar, Adam Devonshire on bass guitar and backing vocals, and Jon Beavis on drums; their unique sound has captivated audiences worldwide.

IDLES' music is a powerful blend of raw energy and thought-provoking lyrics. Their name is often stylized as IDLES to emphasize their rebellious spirit. Formed in [year], the band quickly gained recognition for their intense live performances and socially conscious themes.

Known for their unapologetic approach to addressing societal issues such as toxic masculinity, mental health stigma, and political unrest; IDLES have become a voice for the marginalized. Their music resonates with listeners who seek authenticity in an increasingly superficial world.

Idles return with their new album Crawler – an album of reflection and healing amid a worldwide pandemic that stretched the planet’s collective mental and physical health to the breaking point.

Frontman Joe Talbot says, “We want people who’ve gone through trauma, heartbreak, and loss to feel like they’re not alone, and also how it is possible to reclaim joy from those experiences.” Idles albums have always been anchored by these overarching themes, but the ability of the band to juxtapose beauty and rage with humor and drama has never felt more satisfying than on Crawler.

These stories are vividly brought to life through Idles’ most soul-stirring music to date, recorded with co-producers Kenny Beats (Vince Staples, Freddie Gibbs) and Idles guitarist Mark Bowen. There are, of course, numerous moments that will inspire absolute mayhem in a packed concert venue, but there are also fresh textures and experiments that push Idles into thrilling new territory. “I don't really see us as a ‘rock band’ and working with Kenny [Beats] freed us of the idea of genre,” Talbot enthuses. “On this album, our dissolution of ego was helped by Kenny’s humble nature and willingness to learn. He has boundless passion for making the best song possible. Not the best ‘rock’ song — the best song possible.” He continues, “It was writing selfishly that helped make it possible. Reflecting. Telling my own story. Not trying to tell everyone else's story. Not trying to fix the world — just talking about how I am fixing mine.”
