You know, as a professional musician/recording artist myself, I *could* wax lyrical about the genius to be found within the fabulous output from the Sleaford Mods. But that would ruin the point. I think the *actual* point is the fact that it's brilliantly *non*-music. They don't just stick two fingers up at the music establishment - they stick two fingers right up the cracks of the arses of the music establishment, and tell them to go fuck themselves while they're at it. Over the years, I've worked with a massive variety of artists, but I've *never* happened upon anyone quite like the Sleafords. They are the personification of 'zero fucks given', laid out on a silver platter of brilliance. It's as simple as that. Fucking *bravo*, chaps.

Utterly mesmerising. I can't decide whether this is a song or a poem. Don't s'pose it matters. Either way, if you've ever been a 'jobseeker' then this will hit home.

The Casio calculator synth is pure fucking genius for a kick off. The vocal delivery has limitless cold fury. The hatred for back to back shit jobs burns through the track like a blow torch. Saw these guys at Rock City Nottingham which has the perfect mosh pit with a sticky floor. Go see them!

Punk-Hop? Lol just great, passionate, 'makes me want to stick on repeat, grab a beer + whack up the vol... Proper aggressive in your face 'real' punk, hip hop beats & social commentary, unique way of rapping that is really innovative & makes them proper British Hip-Hop to me, especially set against the album tracks - as innovative as The Four Owls and as hardcore as Grime, they are equally as valid & have a huge, diverse & innovative back catalogue. They can also play better with that aggressive edge live, which brings out the real spirit of the music as the best Punk groups did. Which brings the Punk element right out... to me they are the only act in the UK doing truly modern punk music... But to be all that, give away all your music for free & make profit on the vinyl sales to collectors / those with £££s to burn... Cool Bastards!! They haven't changed one bit, were hilarious & just 100% @ Glastonbury.... They seem to be getting better & better, and it's nice to hear some more chilled funk beats worked into the main beat - subtle. Bastards. I'm 45 & I'd love to be that cool, doing that for a living. JOKE - Two working class guys end up making proper quality cool tunes, lyrics & beats in their mid 40s... without compromising an inch in what they do. Like the laptop stand - that & Andrew happily bopping away to his beats... completely broke the mould. Trailblazers. Got me checking new music after getting bored. The only band that speaks right to me, expresses who i feel I am, my conflicts, my world... not many artists left of that mould...

Anyone who was a teenager here in California back in the late 70's and early 80's would remember well the origins of punk, and would probably agree that if you could time-travel, you could take the music of the Sleaford Mods and put it on the sound system of the Odyssey in West LA, on a Wednesday night (punk night) and it would fit in perfectly.

Well, these guys are just the latest in a long line of folk who sing about the English working class experience. I remember back in the day a song with a similar sentiment from a fairly well-known English band called The Clash: Career Opportunities. The lyric “They’re gonna have to introduce conscription, they’re gonna have to take away my prescription” resonates with me today because that is what governments ended up doing. First with so-called YOP schemes (later transformed to YTS), then sanctioning people for not looking for work. Yet, still the ruling class here won’t give ordinary folk the skills/education they need to get quality work and good careers… The thing is that, with a wave of AI heading our way that will make even many office-based and customer-facing roles redundant, we’re going to need more welfare benefits. Time for a universal basic income. Give people a few hundred dollars a week (without having to sign on and have interviews with Job Centre staff) and, who knows?, they might do something creative and value adding with their time…

Hey man, I'm 26. Back living with my parents after being unemployed a few months due to a nasty, nasty fucking work environment, but I've gained a lot of experience/skills since 22 and could now reasonably get into a union position paying $30 an hour or over here as long as I can just get a new job to leverage myself into it. At 22 I was super fucked and with no skills, no girl, no nothing. At least now I've got a beautiful wife who will stick by me through anything. You can do it mate, I'm in a shit cycle as well, but there's light at the end of the tunnel. I wish the best for you. I don't know what you do, but the trades are amazing, and if you're an idiot like me and don't have an education you can even make more than the tradies if you're willing to work in the "custodial arts" for the hospitals or school boards lol.

A shade of Ian Dury in the sarcasm and style of lyrics and delivery. Fukin great stuff. JCC was the 1st guy I ever saw on stage. I was a young punk at my 1st gig, Siouxsie and the Banshees and this bloke comes on. I thought he was goin to introduce the support band and he starts doin "poetry" I thought WTF is this? for about 30 seconds and then I was totally into it and have been for over 40 years. Ja... an aging celtic punk and descendant af Druids

this makes me really happy

I come back to this a lot. Andrew loves it. We should love it.

I've been listening music for 50 years seeing it all the sex pistols Ian Dury buzzcocks the jam then into acid house clubs party's and now I'm 55 still aving it..but Ave never seen a more original band than these ..wow...can of strongbow I'm a mess 😮😮😮

I'd never heard any of their stuff before this. They're wonderful!

The two coolest human beings who have ever existed. You could jump straight from British Punk in 1977 to here.

All I'm listening to now is the sleaford mods...can I be your bez..fuck off music mixed with rave ..electric raw punk lyrics banging beats..original music..keep it up..goose pimple shiver down spine comedy realism

Came as directed by Justin Hawkins - this is filthy good!

This is some of the most powerful and addictive music I've heard in my life

Love these guys , A genuine great track nothing better , verbally vocally 🎶🎵🎼🎼

One of the greatest performances on Jools ever 🙏🏻

the most original band ever

Mega mate. Sleaford Mods always speak the truth without dressing it up in bullshit. Keeping it real lads, love it.

This is a modern classic that will, one day, be taught in schools...

I think as long as I’m breathing, I will never stop admiring and just loving this band. They are so relevant right now but most people have an IQ under 120 don’t understand that.

Found these way too late but cannot stop listening to all there stuff exactly what's missing in music right now! Love it!

John Cooper Clarke meets the Fall, dancing by Ian Curtis!.Fucking perfect.

Nice one! Thanks for introducing me to The Seaford Mods. This tune is so close to home and probably sums up my experience at the Jobbie Centre perfectly.

I keep coming back to this over the years. Absolutely fucking belting performance.

I've got drugs too take and a mind to break!! Jobsekka!!!

1:19 is my favourite "fook off" ever

Can’t believe this completely passed me by. Brilliant!

Austerity Britain summed up in 4 minutes

Came here from Justin Hawkins and I just can't stop watching it.

We lost Mark E Smith not so long ago. I just discovered Sleaford Mods. It gives me hope

Intelligent rage articulated perfectly by probably the UK's most important band.

Broken Britain in lyrical form. Austerity was a political strategy - NOT an economic one!
