About this product

Undoubtedly, absolutely, definitely the world's greatest rock 'n' roll band. - Iggy Pop Call them minimalist agit-rock, beat-based political punk, or... don't, but what you can't call Sleaford Mods is half-arsed. They're aggressive, abrasive, and unabashed in their lyrical support for England's working class and in railing against the oligarchs who deny people their basic human and civil rights. Vocalist Jason Wiliamson shouts against austerity-era Britain's malaise and stagnation with plenty of profanity, but even more cleverness and wit; and while his lyrics specify conditions in his home country, his anger and call-to-arms can unite all of us who witness and work under a system that privileges the wealth of the few over the bare comfort, and even the survival, of the just-as-worthy many. With Andrew Fearn's deceptively simple beats and melodies underpinning Williamson's virtuosic vocal performances, this would be a fascinating record, message or no; but the drive, meaning, and compassion behind these catchy, and even dancefloor-ready tunes make this album as vital politically as it is artistically. Sleaford Mods are at their sneering, yowling best with English Tapas. Album Tracks 1. Army Nights 2. Just Like We Do 3. Moptop 4. Messy Anywhere 5. Time Sands 6. Snout 7. Drayton Manored 8. Carlton Touts 9. Cuddly 10. Dull 11. B.H.S 12. I Feel So Wrong

Vinyl LP pressing. May 19 marks 10 years of Sleaford Mods seminal album, Divide And Exit. Allying strong words and minimal electronics, Sleaford Mods' second 'proper' album the self-released Divide And Exit was not only Andrew Fearn and Jason Williamson's most effective artistic expression to that point, it also truly captured the taste of a land souring by the day. Now set for a reissue through Rough Trade Records to mark the record's tenth anniversary, the fully remastered album - complete with a limited-edition LP sleeve designed by Cold War Steve - offers a chance to fully appreciate a band beginning to hit their artistic stride while acknowledging and commiserating that many of the dark forces that inspired it's creation linger on. Yet once again it is possible revel in the hopeful anger that underpins Sleaford Mods' blasts of outrage and electro. Album Tracks 1. Air Conditioning 2. Tied Up in Nottz 3. A Little Ditty 4. You're Brave 5. Strike Force 6. The Corgi 7. From Rags to Richards 8. Liveable S**t 9. Under the Plastic and N.T.C 10. Tiswas 11. Keep Out of It 12. Smithy 13. Middle Men 14. Tweet Tweet Tweet
