'Mercedes Marxist' released on Partisan Records is available to stream & download now or pre-order the 7" at https://idles.lnk.to/mercedes Mercedes Marxist was a strange beast for us, after Rottweiler, it was the first song we wrote for Joy as an Act of Resistance. I was pissed off at what I was and where I was: I was sofa surfing on the weekends and spending the weeks looking after my mum. My life balance was way off and this song reflects just how useless I felt. It was me at my worst and without any buoyancy it became catharsis. It was the last splurge from Brutalism so we omitted it. I like it now. We're also happy to announce we've added some more shows with support from Surfbort & Preoccupations. Details below.
