The momentum continues for Bristol\u00a0punks IDLES, who follow\u00a0raucous shows at Reading & Leeds, selling out Village Underground in just a few hours and supporting Foo Fighters at The O2\u00a0with the announcement of their biggest headliner yet\u00a0at London’s Heaven on April 19th 2018.\u00a0They will also play Manchester’s Gorilla the night before on the 18th.<\/p>\n

The two shows go\u00a0on-sale<\/a>\u00a0Friday 27th October<\/strong> at 9am <\/strong>from:\u00a0gigst.rs\/idles<\/a><\/p>\n

This year’s ‘Brutalism’ LP\u00a0received considerable attention on its release\u00a0and this alongside their incendiary live shows have\u00a0garnered them\u00a0a growing\u00a0fan base ever since. Jeremy Vine is among\u00a0their admirers, they\u2019re in Radio 6\u2019s albums of the year, they were 33-1 for the Mercury Prize at Ladbrokes ahead of announcement and they had the biggest crowd of the whole weekend on\u00a0The Lake Stage at Latitude where they also performed a secret set for the BBC, also rammed, directly after at the Introducing stage.<\/p>\n

As well as their own headlining tour,\u00a0the band have performed dates with Dead Kennedy’s, DIIV\u00a0and were The Maccabees special guests at all three of their final shows at Alexandra Palace.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve not been hurt by a succession of brilliant music videos either.\u00a0Take a watch of their recent video for Mother<\/em>, where front man Joe Talbot proceeds to destroy a table full of china, piece by piece:<\/p>\n
