Are You Satisfied?

Are You Satisfied? is the debut album of English punk duo Slaves. It was released on 1 June 2015.[1] It reached number 8 in its first week on the UK Albums Chart.[2] The album was nominated for the 2015 Mercury Music Prize.[3] The album received mixed reviews from critics upon release. Clash Music reviewed their debut album, calling it a "solid debut" and rating it seven out of ten,[4][5] however, Crack placed the album at number 1 in their list of the worst albums of 2015, and described the duo as "papier-mache punks with their mockney lip-flapping, fag-paper-thin-sentiment, derivative riffs, embarrassingly prescriptive pseudo-politics and sixth form poetry."
