Our Take

SLEAFORD MODS - Eton Alive

In their latest offering, the ever-acerbic Sleaford Mods take aim at the upper echelons of British society with their trademark wit and unapologetic attitude. "Eton Alive" is a blistering critique of privilege and entitlement, delivered with the duo's signature brashness and relentless energy.

Taking inspiration from the band's own working-class roots, the album is a scathing commentary on the state of modern Britain, with frontman Jason Williamson delivering his cutting observations over Andrew Fearn's stripped-down beats. Tracks like "Kebab Spider" and "When You Come Up to Me" showcase the Mods at their most raw and confrontational, while "OBCT" and "Policy Cream" offer a darker, more introspective tone.

Throughout the album, the band's keen sense of humor shines through, with lyrics that are equal parts hilarious and thought-provoking. Williamson's deadpan delivery adds an extra layer of irony to the group's social commentary, making for a surprisingly fun listen despite the heavy subject matter.

Overall, "Eton Alive" is a bold statement from a band that shows no signs of mellowing with age. Sleaford Mods remain as relevant and incisive as ever, and this album is sure to please both longtime fans and newcomers alike. So grab a pint, turn up the volume, and let Sleaford Mods remind you why they're one of the most important acts in British music today. Cheers, lads!

About the artist

Sleaford Mods

Sleaford Mods are the unlikely duo from Nottingham, UK who have been shaking up the music scene with their raw, unapologetic brand of punk-infused electronic beats. Comprised of frontman Jason Williamson and musician Andrew Fearn, the Mods have gained a reputation for their scathing lyrics, delivered in Williamson's trademark rapid-fire style. With their no-holds-barred approach to social commentary, Sleaford Mods have established themselves as the voice of the disenfranchised working class in Britain. Their lyrics capture the frustrations and struggles of everyday life, addressing issues such as unemployment, government austerity measures, and the decline of traditional British industries. But don't let their political message fool you - Sleaford Mods are not afraid to have a good time. Their energetic live performances are a sight to behold, with Williamson's stage presence commanding the audience's attention from start to finish. And Fearn's pulsating beats provide the perfect backdrop for Williamson's lyrical onslaught. In a music landscape oversaturated with manufactured pop stars and cookie-cutter bands, Sleaford Mods stand out as a refreshingly authentic and unapologetic force to be reckoned with. With their unapologetic attitude and irreverent sense of humour, they are a breath of fresh air in the music industry. So if you're looking for music that packs a punch and isn't afraid to speak truth to power, look no further than Sleaford Mods. They may not be everyone's cup of tea, but one thing's for sure - they're not here to make friends. And that's just the way we like it.
