new record getting good early reviews - I guess S.M usually do

new album is great, a little more oomph and atmosphere in the instrumentals, I think. but also a kazoo

Love live videos of SM, with the producer bopping his head and drinking a tallboy every time.

The only band Mark E. Smith was willing to praise near the end of his life? Pretty surprising, seemed Fall-adjacent enough for him to get mad.

Marc Riley praised a lot more and his opinion means a lot less but I would just like to co-opt this thread to say that his approval of the Flat Worms was not done in error, they are good

The female guest vocals on a couple of the new tracks do feel like a welcome alleviation of the sometimes relentless blokiness of this stuff, while still being totally consistent with the overall aesthetic.

ha I made a SM mix a couple weeks ago and brought her verse in twice
― John Wesley Glasscock (Hadrian VIII), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 21:36 (three years ago) link
I don’t really think of them as particularly blokey per se; Jason’s not like his onstage persona when he’s offstage, and Andrew’s gay. That said, I do also welcome the recent female guest vocals... they offset something.

You don't think it's going to work... and then it does.
The Uncut Curated Editions Special is well worth getting, BTW. It's pleasingly thorough, and they've clearly taken leading roles in its construction.

Just wanted to say wow and fucking wow at this band right now. Released banging new video featuring Perry Farrell. Force Ten and UK GRIM both outstanding stuff. I am buzzing for the new album this weekend.
― The Fred Machine (Ste), Monday, 6 March 2023 17:33 (one year ago) link
I was so bowled over by English Tapas at its time that I've found everything since then vaguely more pedestrian, but yeah, "Force 10" in particular is promising. Who's the guest vocalist?
In the process of not finding out that on discogs, I learned about the 2022 Orbital collab, which sounds suitably mad and dandy.
― anatol_merklich, Friday, 10 March 2023 08:35 (one year ago) link
Florence Shaw (from Dry Cleaning) is the collab for Force 10
Bought the new one this morning, not yet listened but will get around to it later. They're doing a live internet broadcast tomorrow at 9pm bst on YT wit Q and A
― Ste, Friday, 10 March 2023 09:21 (one year ago) link
Ah, makes sense. Thanks for YT headsup!

"get married and go on safari" cracks me up every time. They do have this knack of striking imagery, to use ilx parlance.

oh more heads up on that yt thing, Mods say from 8:30 they will be in chat to answer questions.

Perry Farrell sounds like he was airdropped in from a '90s ska-punk record.

Hiya Dan. Apologies but we are not sharing a bill. Sheer Mag are supporting us because this is our tour. Credit where credits due, of course and I understand this is their hometown, however this isn’t an event that has a shared billing. They are the support.— Sleaford Mods (@sleafordmods) April 10, 2023

It was about that time again I guess for accounts with under 15 thousand followers, loosely connected to gatekeepers and disc jockeys to accuse us once more of punching down. A term beyond ripe for the bin, along with ‘vital’ and ‘amazing’.— Sleaford Mods (@sleafordmods) April 12, 2023
