Sleaford Mods The Demise Of Planet X

Sleaford Mods return with The Demise Of Planet X, their most expansive and ambitious album to date — as confrontational, sharp-witted and fiercely contemporary as ever.

Driven by Andrew Fearn’s urgent, stripped-back electronics and Jason Williamson’s unmistakable machine-gun delivery, the album charts modern Britain in decline: political rot, cultural numbness, social media decay and personal disillusionment, all skewered with the duo’s trademark bile and dark humour. While still uncompromising, The Demise Of Planet X reveals a broader emotional range, weaving melody, reflection and atmosphere into the familiar sonic attack.

The record also features an impressive and unexpected cast of collaborators, including Aldous Harding, Liam Bailey, grime MC Snowy, and a rare studio return from Sue Tompkins. Actress Gwendoline Christie also makes her first foray into music, appearing alongside Midlands band Big Special on the striking single The Good Life.

This indie-exclusive edition is pressed on neon green marble vinyl and housed in a gatefold sleeve with glow-in-the-dark artwork, complete with printed lyric inner sleeves — a bold, limited one-off pressing that perfectly matches the album’s restless energy.

Blistering, funny and uncomfortably accurate, The Demise Of Planet X finds Sleaford Mods pushing forward without softening the blow — an album that moves hearts, minds and feet while staring straight into the cultural abyss.
