It was an ABSOLUTE pleasure having the guys from Bristol, UK's IDLES in the CJLO environment the morning after a sweaty show in Montreal March 22, 2018.  They recorded a great four song set for us, and then we talked about western culture's strange relationship with grief, catharsis through performing live, and connecting with their audience.
