As a British person, it makes immensely proud that one of the most vibrant and exciting musical acts of our time is two sketchy looking blokes who you probably wouldn't make eye contact with in the pub unless you wanted to score some weed and a couple of lines. Fucking love these guys...

[@snapcult464]

As someone from Chicago we have drill rap where 14 year olds shoot each other with full auto and then go home and make a track that gets a million views in a weekend. Will you marry me so I can get citizenship? 😂

[@fennecmurder3217]

Somehow these guys are the british people I can relate too.

I am a 1,343 year old vampire and this is the best thing I've heard since the sounds of beheading in the French Revolution.

Really admire Andrew's dedication to being present at every single gig solely to press the play button on the tracks. Real trooper even during a worldwide pandemic.

That button ain't gonna push itself. Innit

[@PoliticalTalkAbout]

Considering Andrew creates the sounds - no one’s more qualified to push that button. Besides-it wouldn’t feel quite right for Jason to be there writhing in rhythm - all by his lonesome, as remarkable as he is.

I was in a kind of "ooh they are getting big, I bet they ain't that good now" state of mind (not seen them since Chameleon days) and play this, now I am in a "ooh, they are weirder and way better" kind of mode, excellent, outstanding performance. Vocal delivery is next level, beats are unbelievable.

[@AKAtAGG]

Andrew's beard has taken a life of its own. Love it. I'm old enough to remember the sex pistols hitting the scene, and the Sleaford Mods should be considered as important a band as any that have been formed since the 60s.

[@AKAtAGG]

@cross hatch2 couldn't agree more, but I have to say of all bands who 'sold out' like that SM are the only one I'd forgive immediately.

@@cohentaylor4698 The rail system in the UK used to be publicly owned, it was called British Rail. The rail system was sold by the government to lots of different private companies. Since then, train travel price has risen to completely unaffordable levels. A 2/3 hour train journey can sometimes cost £200, no joke.
