Compilation from electronic punk-hop duo from Nottingham

Black, standard weight LP includes download card

Sleaford Mods started out sometime during 2006 whilst Jason Williamson was living in Nottingham. Born out of part frustration and part accident, it quickly found its feet as an aggressive verbal onslaught on all that is contrived and connected to the day-to-day hammer of low paid employment and domestic siutations arising from that trap. After a year of working ideas out in both the studio and in live performances, Williamson moved south and took the cause to London and trod the boards there for a couple of years, before returning to Nottingham in 2009.

Soon after that return he met Andrew Fearn and the Sleaford Mods became a duo. Fearn's first work was on the production of Wank the Mods fifth CD album. Soon after that started stalking the stage and studio with Williamson. Andrew's involvement meant that Jason was now able to stop creating the samples and loops that littered the early recordings and concentrate on the lyrics, whilst Andrew created numerous tunes for Jason to vent his spleen over.

Just after the release of Wank the duo were invited to play a three day festival curated by Nottingham's Rammel Club. During that weekend a working relationship with Nottingham's abstract-punk Harbinger Sound label was formed. A relationship which a year later resulted in the release of the Austerity Dogs vinyl album. This release would be followed by numerous shows around the UK and Europe, including further festival appearances. As word- of-mouth praise for the album slowly spread out and onto the record-buying public's radar, Austerity Dogs soon sold out of its intial run of 300 copies and has gone on to, as of today, a fourth pressing of the vinyl edition and a CD version was also released. Rave reviews would start to appear in magazines as diverse as The Wire and Uncut, along with interviews being published both on paper and on-line, both here and abroad. The album featured, and topped, many writers polls for the best records of 2013.

Somewhere between punk, hiphop and spoken word lie UK duo Sleaford Mods. (They are neither mods, nor from Sleaford. They're from Nottingham.) Jason Williamson spews a tapestry of bile over low-tech, muscular backing by Andrew Fearn, the result is somewhere between The Fall, McClusky, Happy Mondays and John Cooper Clark. The pair have been making music for eight years now but really started to get attention with last year's terrific Austerity Dogs and look to go even wider with the just released Divide and Exit. On it Sleaford Mods are in full rebellion mode. Williamson hold equal contempt for the rich, conservatives, liberals, phonies in general, idiots, 'jolly f*#@ers,' etc all via a n torrent of brilliantly, hilariously profane lyrics.

At the end of October Ipecac Recordings will be introducing the coolest thing to come out of the UK in a long time. With the release of a compilation from Sleaford Mods titled CHUBBED UP+. Sleaford Mods are a stripped down, political, electronic punk-hop band from working class Nottingham. This stuff is real and it is spot on!
