In June 2022, British post-punk band IDLES from Bristol—whose album Crawler (2021), with its ferocious lyrics on addiction and inequality, capped their evolution from Joy as an Act of Resistance (2018)—delivered a session for From The Basement, Nigel Godrich's (Radiohead producer) legendary series revived in 2021 as a platform for intimate no-audience studio recordings. Their 45-minute set, captured in high quality at a London studio, embodied the Crawler Tour climax, where Lee Kiernan's aggressive riffs merged with Joe Talbot's emotive delivery to forge a rebellion feel in confined space. Featuring tracks like "Colossus" and "Never Fight a Man With a Perm", this performance highlighted IDLES' role as a generational voice, turning the studio into a realm of collective catharsis.
