TANGK by Idles

TANGK, the fifth studio album by Bristol's Idles, arrived on 15 February 2024 through Partisan, and it's the one where the band traded some of the punch for a caress. Nigel Godrich, Kenny Beats and guitarist Mark Bowen produced it together, and you can hear the space they carved out: Joe Talbot's voice slides and croons where it used to bark, while Bowen and Lee Kiernan's guitars, Adam Devonshire's bass and Jon Beavis's drums shimmer, stutter and pulse instead of just pounding.
"Dancer", "Grace" and "Gift Horse" were the singles, and the critics mostly swooned. It became the band's second number one album in the UK and picked up a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album at the 67th ceremony.
