The Ideas audio-landscape is rich, with tonal and vocal inspiration present from early 80s post punk artists, such as The Cure and Joy Division, brought up-to-date with pounding back-drops, akin to The National, Interpol and Arcade Fire. The band recently recorded with renowned UK indie producer George Shilling – Frank Turner, Blur, Teenage Fanclub – and have their debut album planned for the later-half of 2020.
