Fall

Describing The Fall to a new listener is a task that even the most talented wordsmith would find problem with. A mixture of punk fury, spoken word and shamanic chanting that basks in repeated, near-cacophonous guitar riffs and tribal drum textures... it's more simple to sum up by stating 'that's The Fall'. Mark E Smith led the revolving door band through unrelenting decades of musical manufacture - ignorant of trend and fashion - to establish himself and the moniker as a bonafide, alternative music landmark. This vinyl 2LP collection documents The Fall's scathing April 28, 2002 performance at the ATP Festival.
