The mods are back and they have something to say. Announcing a new album, we can’t think of a better voice to have right now than new Sleaford Mods and their signature all-political, no-holds-back approach. Declaring “this is UK grim”, we’re glad someone saying it how it is.

Arriving March 10th, UK Grim is set to be the soundtrack of our permanently unprecedented time these days, dealing with the conflict of loving where you’re from in the midst of hating what the country and those in charge are doing right now.

Talking about the album, Jason Williamson said: “Maybe we are proud of the country. Maybe we are proud to be English. Maybe I’m proud of the horrible grey streets and the shit weather and the stupid fashions I find myself investing in. It’s just that the English we’re proud of being is absolutely nothing like the English the authorities want to try and promote.” 

With a public figure packed music video finished off with the line “In England no one can hear you scream”, the band seem ready to dive into the horrorshow of modern life and we’re ready to chant along.

UK Grim arrives March 10th.
