The Edgy Evolution: Warnings/Promises by Idlewild (Certified Silver Edition)

Celebrating a pivotal moment in their discography, Warnings/Promises marks the fourth studio album by Idlewild and a significant step in their evolution as a band. Released after the success of The Remote Part, this album saw Idlewild making notable changes to their lineup and sound.

Warnings/Promises achieved Top 10 success and was certified Silver by the BPI, reflecting its impact and reception. The album marked a departure from the band’s earlier sound, incorporating a more stripped-back approach that combined melodic rock with contemporary folk influences.
