Sleaford Mods

[Plumdaff]

It was full and good. Weird venue, they were excellent though.

 

[ddraig]

tidy, was it in the nighclub bit?

I think that tweet says it for me. Even if you think they are fake and crap, there is the potential there to connect with what a lot of people are thinking and feeling which is outside the usual rock and roll retread cliches.

I was quite struck by this seeing them the other week Fozzie - seen them play the smaller room at the same venue a couple of times but now they're in the big room, and it's sold out and there's a vibe in the crowd like I've not seen at gigs for a few years, a sense that they really mean something to people, that they relate, that they feel a sense of ownership over them because Jason voices their feelings

It's because they're NOT fake and crap that they're connecting with people

I've got called an anarchist
That's for the middle class trainspotters
I don't want my dog on a string
That's gonna hurt the thing

Ahem, bit awkward round here that.

Finger on the pulse as always just bought Austerity Dogs. Very good. The man is a wanker.

Their new album sounds like it should be good too, it's due out next month I think.

Lovely post punk bass lines mixed with electro and angry diatribes. I'm getting all of it.

 

[Maharani]

They were brilliant at Primavera Sound and the gig was packed. Great vibe!

Major interview in the Observer, they really do get it

Idiots visit submerged villages in two hundred pound wellies

Glasto?

Noel Gallagher (“an elitist apologist, a withered victim of luxury”)

Ouch!

It's a good article. Good on em. I like them even more now.

 

[Balbi]

Glasto?

Nah, all the Farage, Miliband, Cameron during the south west flood cunts

Now that would be something.

 

[Citizen66]

New album released tomorrow isn't it?

 

[Part 2]

Aye

 

[Citizen66]

I've never pre ordered on iTunes before. Does it come available at a minute past midnight or will I be looking at my phone all day?

 

[elbows]

It's there

 

[Maharani]

It's there

Is it great?

 

[elbows]

Too tired to say yet, probably, only had time to skim the tracks and must sleep now.

 

[Citizen66]

It's 50/50 I think. Like 50% fresh-ish and the other 50% you've heard it before on an earlier album. I think their low fi sound could lead them into a cul de sac. Maybe I'm being unkind. There was a few bits though that made me think 'that sounds like that other track.'

 

[londonkid]

Liking these dudes

 

[BigMoaner]

only got one album, cant remember which one. won't buying another. just some bloke shouting a lot. all songs sound the same.

 

[ouchmonkey]

first listen - good stuff, moves it long a little, just enough

 

[Citizen66]

It's growing on me a bit more now. It hasn't helped that I've been caning three of their other albums for the last month.
