Our Take

Ah, Sleaford Mods, the voice of the disenchanted working class, the sound of a council estate on a Friday night, the poster children for austerity Britain. And boy, do they deliver on their latest album "Key Markets."

From the minute you press play, you're hit with the raw, unapologetic energy of Jason Williamson's venomous lyrics and Andrew Fearn's minimalist beats. It's like being punched in the face by a pint glass wrapped in a copy of Karl Marx's Capital.

Tracks like "No Ones Bothered" and "Face to Faces" are a brutal assault on the mundane realities of everyday life, while "Live Tonight" and "Rupert Trousers" offer a scathing critique of the political elite. It's like watching a Ken Loach film on fast forward, but with a killer soundtrack.

But it's not all anger and aggression. "Tarantula Deadly Cargo" shows a more introspective side to the duo, with Williamson reflecting on his own struggles with mental health and addiction. It's a rare moment of vulnerability in an otherwise unrelenting barrage of rage.

Overall, "Key Markets" is a powerful statement from a band that refuses to be silenced. It's a punk-rock middle finger to the establishment, a rallying cry for the disenfranchised. In a world where everything feels like it's falling apart, Sleaford Mods are here to remind us that we're not alone. And for that, we salute them.

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.
