IDLES have shared a new song – ‘Mercedes Marxist‘ – pulled from the sessions for their latest LP Joy as an Act of Resistance.
‘Mercedes Marxist’ will be released physically on August 2nd, via Partisan Records / Rhythmethod as a 7″ which will include another new song on its b-side, entitled ‘I Dream Guillotine’.
IDLES were recently profiled by the NY Times and GQ as leaders in a movement of new bands tearing down outdated perceptions of masculinity. Their songs are a full-throated indictment of sexism, racism, Trumpism/Brexit, Nationalism, and toxic masculinity.
