Formed in Bristol in 2009, Idles only released their debut album Brutalism in 2017 - but since then have become one of the UK’s most talked about bands.
Just this year, their Glastonbury set was hailed one of the best of the whole festival, their fourth album TANGK became their second UK number one, and they have been nominated for two Grammy Awards.
Consisting of Adam Devonshire (bass), Joe Talbot (vocals), Mark Bowen (guitar), Lee Kiernan (guitar), and Jon Beavis (drums), they have built up a reputation for having a close relationship with their fervent fanbase, which blossoms at their live shows.
They recently played their biggest Scottish headline concert to date, performing in the cavernous OVO Hydro in Glasgow.
Here are a few pictures from the night and the full setlist. You can read our review of the gig here.
