We are passionate about rock music, pure and simple. 'On Our
Knees' is our take on what we love, and a firm nod to what makes this
band tick" - Idlewar

In just over two weeks, Orange County, Californian hard rock trio
Idlewar will officially unveil their 'Impulse' full-length debut.
Produced by drummer Pete Pagonis and mastered by Brian Lucey (Ghost
'Meliora', Black Keys 'El Camino', Arctic Monkeys 'AM', plus albums by
David, 'Twin Peaks' 'Dune', Lynch) the new album is released 30th September 2016 via PHD, and delivers a truly rewarding enriched audio landscape.
In advance of its release, today Idlewar offers up the new song and
accompanying music video 'On Our Knees', the 2nd single to be lifted
from their forthcoming debut album (following the release of lead track
'Criminal'). Whereas 'Criminal' is a groove drenched, cheeky nod to the
introduction of 'Impulse', 'On Our Knees' finds Idlewar with their foot
to the floor, delivering a knockout punch with its gutsy overdrive tone,
yet still maintaining melody and hooks-a-plenty with effortless ease.
The lo-fi-esque raw visuals of the O.C. trio's new live video, combined
with the driven sonics, makes 'On Your Knees' another reason why you
need to check this band out.
In support of the forthcoming new album, Idlewar embark on their debut UK tour this coming November/December, as special guests to Stone Broken. Their time in the UK will also see the Californians play Planet Rock Radio's 'RockStock'. The sold out 3 day festival is headlined by The Dead
Daisies, British Lion (Steve Harris, Iron Maiden) and Black
