Joy as an Act of Resistance.

by IDLES

This band has been a great reminder for me recently of how truly subjective music (and art in general, I suppose) is and how there's so much out there that I can just not connect with independent of whether it's "good" or not, but keeping an open mind and revisiting a work or an artist at a different point in their career when I am at a different point in my life can be rewarding, fulfilling, joyous, and/or important. And the glory of this particular occasion is that now I have a 5-album discography, and hopefully many more to come, waiting for me. Music... I Recommend It.

This is my most alpha male pleasure probably.
