Allying strong words and minimal electronics, Sleaford Mods’ second ‘proper’ album (or sixth if you go back through the early CD-R efforts) 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. This 10th anniversary remastered reissue offers a chance to fully appreciate a band hitting their artistic stride while acknowledging and commiserating that many of the dark forces that inspired its creation linger on. Once again it is possible to bathe in the hopeful anger that underpins Sleaford Mods’ blasts of outrage and electro.
Limited edition red vinyl LP features alternative artwork created by Cold War Steve plus a bonus flexidisc featuring the rarity “Git Some Balls”.
