Idles have unveiled a video for Kill Them With Kindness.
The song is another guitar and drum-charged slab of searing social commentary off the Bristol band's latest album, 'Ultra Mono', released in September. The black and white clip, meanwhile, was animated by Pip Williamson and helmed by director James Carbutt, who said:
"The dingy pub setting in the film is based on the Working Men’s Clubs of my hometown (Barnsley). It was nice to imagine Idles bursting in and spreading a message of love. During our research we discovered that no two Wetherspoons carpets are the same, they are all unique like snowflakes, so yeah making this film was a wild ride."
Idles will support the record with a series of intimate instore shows in the spring, followed by a headline UK and European tour throughout the summer. The remaining tickets are on sale now.
