Product Details

Jason Williamson's caustic, working-class fury and Andrew Fearn's brutalist beat constructions found their sharpest early focus on this 2014 record, arriving at a moment when austerity Britain was grinding down anyone paying attention. The Nottingham duo built a cult following the old way, through word of mouth and relentless gigging, before this album cracked them wide open to a much larger audience.


Vinyl LP pressing. May 19 marks 10 years of Sleaford Mods seminal album, Divide And Exit. Allying strong words and minimal electronics, Sleaford Mods' second 'proper' album the self-released Divide And Exit was not only Andrew Fearn and Jason Williamson's most effective artistic expression to that point, it also truly captured the taste of a land souring by the day. Now set for a reissue through Rough Trade Records to mark the record's tenth anniversary, the fully remastered album - complete with a limited-edition LP sleeve designed by Cold War Steve - offers a chance to fully appreciate a band beginning to hit their artistic stride while acknowledging and commiserating that many of the dark forces that inspired it's creation linger on. Yet once again it is possible revel in the hopeful anger that underpins Sleaford Mods' blasts of outrage and electro.
