Sleaford Mods’ Jason Williamson said in a press release, “On the day we went in cold and just handed ourselves over to it. ‘Nom Nom Nom’ is a lyrical continuation from our album UK Grim over Andrew’s keyboard riff, built on by Hot Chip and finishing up with an excellent chorus from Alexis [Taylor]. ‘Cat Burglar’ is a weird prog-rock-meets-B-52s jam that explores the narrow corridors of modern human experience.” War Child, he added, is “doing important work in a time where the world is in chaos and although we can’t fix the chaos, we can do a bit to help.”
