IDLES SHARE “MAKING OF CRAWLER” DOCUMENTARY
CRAWLER RECEIVES TWO GRAMMY® NOMINATIONS
UK power-house band IDLES has shared today the “Making of Crawler” documentary about their 2023 GRAMMY®-nominated album, CRAWLER, released in November 2021 via Partisan Records. The album, produced by IDLES’ Mark Bowen alongside Kenny Beats, is running for Best Rock Album for their groundbreaking record Crawler, and album highlight “Crawl!” for Best Rock Performance.
CRAWLER marks a real turning point in the evolution of the band, adding a whole new dimension to the music the Bristolian five piece make. It’s a well deserved nod to the band who formed in Bristol in 2009. IDLES have toured the world since Crawler Was released last November including major US festivals Coachella and Lollapalooza as well as stops at Late Night playing Jimmy Kimmel Live! And The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.
The band’s lead singer and songwriter Joe Talbot says, “We want people who’ve gone through trauma, heartbreak, and loss to feel like they’re not alone. This album shows the ugly side of where those things come from, but also how it is possible to reclaim joy from those experiences.”
And make sure to watch their “Live From My Den” performance from Cleveland’s Beachland Ballroom, a venue that holds such a special place in the band’s heart it’s name made the tracklisting.
