The DJ makes these performances so much better! The beats are amazing, he has already produced them, he stands sways, has a beer and enjoys his music, love it.
If it weren't for the web Sleaford Mods would have disappeared into obscurity long ago. The chances of true artists like these guys even getting a platform, never mind gaining the loyal fan base they've acquired is virtually impossible today thanks to the modern music industry. God bless the internet!
Try all them witches latest KEXP set Future islands at kset zagreb/MIND LOWING! All young fathers KEXP sets The drums KEXP Sets.... They're all AMAZING!!
been waiting for a group like this. To blend punk rock tempo and basslines with electronica sucessfully could only come organically. wonderful lyrics there is hope for the world.
Things that shouldn't work but do, spectacularly. Sleaford Mods have come to kick the shit out of the corpse of rock, punk and popular music in general.
Don't think I can express how much I love them!! Saw them yesterday in Glasgow, one of the best gigs EVER. The energy was amazing, they were so passionate, angry yet so amusing. Stunning, STUNNING performance!!!
Came here from the new Orbital track. I feel cheated that I've wasted so many years not knowing Sleaford Mods existed. Absolutely note perfect, punk to the core, huge Teaches of Peaches energy, f'n magic.
I used to be an elitist music snob. I probably would have stuck my higher educated nose up at this, but I've grown up, lived life, been an actual adult, and now this just hits me to my fucking core.
This stuff is so good, the lyrics might be a bit regional for yanks but the message is clear: everything is fuckt and shite and boring. They are best thing band wise outta England for fucking ages
I find them fantastic and think they have a good attitude. What a fascinating performance, like it very much! I could listen to and watch them for hours. Charismatic, great musical feeling and very subtle Sprachgefühl. Would love to see them live here in Germany this year!
The seriously tight rhythmic delivery of the vocals works soooooooo brilliantly with the beats. Jason delivers the truth in a kind of tourette way, love it.
Perhaps you watched 24 Hour Party People and heard that Manchester sound from Joy Division, New Order and others back in the 80s. English Punk and Fuck me, we need it more than ever now in a Homogenized world. I haven't heard core emotion like this in music for some time.
KEXP seem to post the best sound recordings of anyone they present, partly what makes this set so good, you hear it properly, listened to a bunch of stufff on their channel tonite, didnt like alot of it but the production is real good
absolutely superb poet and quality tunes takes me back to the good old days of underground punk ( not the commercial shit! ) keep it up lads and massive respect to you both
If it weren't for Stewart Lee i would have never heard of Sleaford Mods. One of the many brilliant things he has done, along with pretty much anything else he does.
He's a huge fan. He interviewed them for the nme which was where I found out about them. Like the other guy said he also wrote that review and when he curated all tomorrow's parties last year they were one of the headliners.
Just discovered 'em 3 days ago (second week of January 2020) on a cheesy french Netflix series, been listening non-stop since! My girlfriend and I just felt in love with that sound. I absolutely dig the minimalist/P.I.L./old-school punk vibe of it! I think I'm addicted! Hope they'll come to Canada (Montréal) someday, there's just nothing like it here. Good job, KLXP. I definitely saw a lot of good shit on your show! :)
Pleasantly surprised to see Sleaford Mods getting any kind of attention or following in the USA. I think those of us in the UK and Europe easily forget how culturally diverse and adventurous many Americans are because we only tend to see mainstream Hollywood/media depictions of the states.
Haha love that they talk about how hard it is not to swear for the radio show, then go into Dull as the last song with no attempt at censorship at all 🤣
