“The Demise Of Planet X represents a life lived under immense uncertainty, shaped by mass trauma. When we wrote the last album, it was about stagnation, a country that felt like a lifeless corpse. Three years later, that corpse has been split open by war, genocide, and the lingering psychological fallout of Covid. A multi-layered abomination etched into our collective psyche.” – Jason Williamson. No need to worry, it’s only the end of the world… welcome to The Demise Of Planet X. Having put the Do into DIY in a 15 year (and counting) career that has seen their idiosyncratic but irresistible blueprint of minimal electronics and maximal insight adopted as a creative manifesto by a generation of artists following in their wake, while evolving from lo-fi beginnings to Top 5 albums, sold out tours and festival headline slots, who better than Sleaford Mods’ Andrew Fearn and Jason Wiliamson to chart civilisation’s unravelling? Having perceptively weaved jutting electro into their explorations along society’s fault lines, as you’d expect, their eighth album, The Demise Of Planet X, offers a uniquely Sleaford Mods vision of Armageddon. Eschewing the usual end-of-days tropes, the duo has instead reasoned that it will be the drip, drip, drip decline of social ennui, cultural entropy and selfish corruption that will take us out long before the supernova.
