The success of IDLES‘ 2020 album Ultra Mono is self-evident now, and the Bristol post-punks intend to hammer their liberal point home with their 6th video for single ‘REIGNS‘.
Stock footage of the comfortable, sterile middle-classes enjoying the hunt of the physical, natural world from the safety of their front rooms holds a mirror to IDLES’ own voyeuristic tendencies.
Given the flack they’ve had about class tourism from the likes of Sleaford Mods and Fat White Family, it’s a fairly funny poke at themselves.
Check out the video below:
