Bunch of Kunst | A Film about Sleaford Mods - Exclusive Preview

Rent or download the complete film at vimeo: vimeo.com/onde...
Thanks to their sweary rants about modern England, Nottingham duo Sleaford Mods have been called »the voice of Britain« by their fans, »Britain’s angriest band« by the Guardian and »The world’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band« by Iggy Pop. Jason Williamson, a former chicken factory worker and father of two, his bandmate, beatmaker Andrew Fearn, and their manager Steve Underwood, avant-garde bedroom
label owner and former bus driver, have won over fans with their brutally honest lyrics and DIY ethos. Following them on their two-year journey from bedroom recording sessions and the making of Sleaford Mods’ Top-10-album »Key Markets « to mainstream success, the film tells the story of three guys taking on the music business on their own terms.

English bloke from Daventry here. Been living and working in France 10 years now and was told about Seaford Mods by a French girl who was off to see them in Nantes. The French love them over here... like me, they Love their energy. I hope nobody is going to get to them and overproduce any of it and kill its rawness. Its like listening to birth of Punk again. Bravo chaps, great work. 🏆

Here in America that's exactly what I thought, I was only five when the sex pistols were new,I have been paying attention to these guys.

First heard of these guys a few years ago with the track they did with the Prodigy (Ibiza ft. Sleaford Mods). Never really gave them a proper listen until yesterday, and I'm still going at it today. Telling the world like it is. Super genuine.

as a guy from sherwoood, nottingham it was a bit weird seeing him drive down a road i walk along daily

[@theyalwayscomeinfall]

I don't remember how I found out about Sleaford Mods. When I first heard them, I did not like it. But it was one of those things that I disliked enough to check out a couple more songs. Just to see if I could understand what about this music was attracting people. After hearing a couple more songs, and actually paying attention to the lyrics, I got it. I think it's always interesting when something, whether that be music or a book or whatever, is able to kind of show you that the human experience is exactly the same for the vast majority of us. It doesn't matter if you grew up in Nottingham or you grew up in the southern United States. Most of us feel the same way.

[@Shrimpslider]

Tucson AZ fan here, heard of them on a “What’s in my bag” Amoeba vid been listening ever since 🔥🎤

[@cormackjames]

Starting to really love this band, came across the music randomly and now watching docs. Incredible writing Jason and great beats, everything means something, if you are making music without meaning anything you're in the wrong job lads! Listening to Billy as well, you guys need just keep collabing, it works perfectly.

[@toecutter8002]

Every song Sleaford Mods has done has absolutely true meaning behind every lyric. The man is speaking the way he sees it he walks the walk and talks the talk and theres no lying in those words. Carry on

[@NewZealandWild]

I do like these guys, but hearing the things they say about them brings a sense of deja vue. I was around during the hippie revolution, and when punk exploded onto the music scene, and they said exactly the same things about The Doors and The Sex Pistols. They were right though, refreshingly honest, street level music to counter the masses of established commercial trash. Timely. There is always a place for groups like this, in fact, they are inevitable, and necessary. There aren't that many avenues for the "working class" to voice their grievances, so anything like this is great.4

[@spitfire155k2]

Fucking love Sleaford Mods!!!!!

“Key Markets” is a phenomenal album as was “Divide & Exit”, their finest moments. “Spare Ribs” and “UK GRIM” are even better than “English Tapas”, “Eton Alive”, and “Austerity Dogs.”

[@AcousticLibrary]

sleaford mods was born out of Brexit. Even in the U.S. the poorest state is Mississippi where the annual wage is around 40 something thousand a year, and it is still better living than Britain financially speaking. My mums a Brit as is my grandmother and generations past. As sleaford said in 2019, "(Britain) it's only getting shitter". I live across the pond in a part of NJ where crime and lunatics are more of a concern than finding a decent income and I run into them every day outside work.

Sleaford Mods innit?

[@marc-andrerenaud1394]

@3:11 And that is the problem with music critics and managers; they're so used to trends that when something as gob-smackingly good as Sleaford Mods comes and chews their head off with glee all they can say is: "On paper this band shouldn't appeal to people. But it does." How disconnected do you have to be? Although I only heard of this brilliant angry duo 3 weeks in 2023 is as catchy and relevant as ever, even more so now that the policies put forth thanks to Brexit are ruining the country, much like everyone with a modicum of sense had been screaming about throughout the entire campaign.
