    Certainly this is a vast step forward for Sleaford Mods, musically, tonally, and in terms of performance and the perfection of the biting couplet, but they appear to remain steadfast in their long-held belief that, as Williamson states on "Subtraction," "the only change I like is in my pocket."

    Brexit (let us look forward to the day when we no longer have to speak of this blight) may be this album's context and its backdrop but what we might be getting here is ultimately a form of contemporary elegiac lyricism rather than full-fledged social polemic. Perhaps that is a more useful and rewarding reference and access point for this remarkable piece of work.

    Eton Alive is but another visceral and impetuous take on a grim political reality. [Mar 2019, p.58]
