Sleaford Mods - The Demise Of Planet X
This product is available on Pre-order.
Andrew Fearn and Jason Williamson’s most expansive and ambitious release to date, the album features a rare guest appearance from former Life Without Buildings frontwoman Sue Tompkins, plus collaborations with Aldous Harding, soul singer Liam Bailey and grime MC Snowy, the latter two both hailing from band’s hometown Nottingham.
In her first foray into music, actress Gwendoline Christie (Wednesday/Severance/Game Of Thrones) also joins Midlands band Big Special on Sleaford Mods new single The Good Life, which is released today accompanied by a video directed by Ben Wheatley (The Kill List/A Field In England/Bulk).
Boasting the duo’s most varied and expressive musical approach so far, ‘The Demise Of Planet X’ charts, critiques and satirises our times, while offering a universal cry of anger and release of energy that pushes against the encroaching cultural darkness.
Contemplating the world coming to an end not with a big bang but in slowly rising tide of irritating mundanity, ‘The Demise Of Planet X’ strikes back with vivid sonics, acerbic words, enveloping atmospheres and a engaging wit across 13 tracks that will move hearts, minds and feet.
