Sleaford Mods have shared new single “So Trendy” featuring Perry Farrell. The track arrives ahead of the duo’s forthcoming album UK GRIM, which drops on March 10th via Rough Trade. Sleaford Mods have also announced UK and Irish tour dates for winter for 2023.

“Perry got in touch and said he wanted to work with us,” explains Jason Williamson of the collaboration. “He’s a really cool guy and his back catalogue clearly speaks for itself, so we jumped at it, and So Trendy grew from there.” Enhancing So Trendy’s line of attack, the track’s new video was created by director John Minton (Portishead, Pretenders), who used Generative AI to place Sleaford Mods and Perry Farrell in a fabricated, retro video game-like world that explores the song’s themes.

“So Trendy concerns itself with the ongoing polarisation of living life through smart devices” declares Williamson of the satirical yet savage lyrically edge. “The daily experience is a series of passwords or facial recognitions that lead us into familiar Arenas of consumer marketing and conformity.”
