The slow-motion video featured in the post sees a giant balloon heading straight for a naked manâs face, offering little explanation why. The caption was simply â16 JUNE 2020â with a link to IDLESâ official website.
Fans have taken to the comments section to guess what the band are teasing, with many hoping this signals the release of âGroundsâ â a currently unreleased track, which was teased live during a run of shows in December last year.
Others have suggested this may be IDLES announcing a follow up to their last studio album âJoy As An Act Of Resistanceâ (2018).
IDLES have recently voiced their support for the ongoing Black Lives Matter protests happening both in the UK and across the world. On June 6, the band directed fans to a virtual protest with livestreamed footage of the London event, saying, “Together, our voices will be heard. Black Lives do, have, and always will Matter.”
More recently, IDLES released a limited edition charity tee called ‘No One Is An Island’ with all proceeds going to the Black Lives Matter movement. As of June 12, they had raised a total of ÂŁ30,268.
