Idles announce live album recorded at Paris’ Bataclan
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 18 October 2019
Idles have announced that they will release a live album, ‘A Beautiful Thing: Idles Live At Le Bataclan’, later this year.
“Our show at Bataclan was the end of a very long journey for us”, says frontman Joe Talbot. “On that tour we learnt so much about ourselves, each other and the audiences we have grown with over the past ten years. That show was nothing short of catharsis and nothing more than love”.
“We love what we do and the people who have carried us here”, he goes on. “There was no hiding that at Bataclan and we are so very grateful that the moment was captured in all its glory, love and fatigue. Long live the open minded and long live the moment”.
The album will be released on 6 Dec though Partisan Records. It’ll provide you with a chance to hear the band live that you might not otherwise get. At least that week, as all their UK shows around the release date are sold out.
Here you can see them performing ‘Mother’ at the Bataclan with pictures and everything:
