About Sleaford Mods:
Combining the revolutionary fury of punk and hip-hop with the bleakness of austerity-era Great Britain, Sleaford Mods capture the spirit of their time with blunt eloquence. Andrew Fearn’s minimalistic, intentionally cheap-sounding loops, guitars, and keyboards provide a fitting backdrop as Jason Williamson rants about politics, injustice, and pop culture with outrage, scathing humor, and occasionally, rough-edged poignancy. The duo’s first officially released albums, which included 2014’s Divide and Exit, quickly won acclaim for their brash sounds and words. Sleaford Mods’ sound grew more somber on 2017’s English Tapas, but on 2021’s Top Five U.K. hit Spare Ribs and 2023’s UK Grim, they contrasted the harsh realities of their subject matter with a more colorful, melodic approach. The Demise of Planet X is the 13th studio album by the English duo Sleaford Mods, released on 16 January 2026 through Rough Trade Records.
