Plus, to celebrate, they've released a video to accompany the A-Side. Stream the song "I Dream Guillotine", watch the clip, and revisit their October 2018 KEXP in-studio below.
Ahead of Music Heals: Addiction & Recovery, KEXP spoke with IDLES guitarist Lee Kiernan, who celebrated seven years sober this April. In this exclusive interview, Lee shares his experience with addiction, and the role music has played in his journey to recovery.
The song comes from the Joy as an Act of Resistance sessions.
