no no no and no its not..... post reformation and i dare to say bend sinister is their worst.. fall heads roll up in my top 5 fall albums..... |
Bend Sinister is amazing. Probably their last great album for a long time, at least until Real New Fall.
Reformation is great!!!!!! 50 year old man!!!!!!!! FALL HEADS ROLL. Ugh. The opening track alone is probably the worst Fall song. I dunno, I've listened to it 10 times and can't really say anything good about it. No good riffs, songs go on too long, a really mundane and drab sound.. nothing original (except the opening track which is really bizarre), no good lyrics. Sounds like a bad garage band parodying the Fall. |
ha! well mark did openly apologize for the first track by saying it was a mistake...but what about now, blindness....two of the greatest fall tracks ever.....
50 year old man is excellent alright but thats the imperial wax solvent album, which is great! bend i never got into.... ive just bought a copy of levitate which ive never heard in full... thats not wonderful. its ok, getting very techno in places.....cheap techno..... speaking of which adam...pm in a sec! |
Oh duh, I had a brain fart.
Reformation has some good moments. I think a lot of the songs just go on for way too long. Like, I love the song "Reformation" but they should use the 4 minute video edit of the song, not the 7 minute one. Jesus. The riff of the entire song is 3-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-3-0 for 7 minutes! And yeah I'm not a big fan of their more dancey stuff... |
Wow pauly thanks for the link, I'm gonna grab all those.
What's dj scotch egg or whatever? Haha.. |
fall sound is a good track too tho.....
|
i love the fall. a lot
but i did not like imperial wax solvent at all. i thought 50 year old man was terrible everythng else that ive heard is amazing. my favorite is probably this nations... |
Adam, Pauly, what do you think of The Unutterable?
I think it's as good as Real New Fall LP myself. Cyber Insekt, Dr Bucks Letter and Ketamine Sun are modern Fall classics. |
My top 5:
1. the wonderful and frightening world 2. hex education hour 3. perverted by language 4. code:selfish 5. grotesque (after the gramme) |
oh for sure its on a par if not better than country on the click.. dr bucks letter is amazing as too is two librans... a much forgotten album.... kinda like the light users syndrome...everyone seems to forget how great those albums are!
|
The Unutterable is very underrated, agreed. I don't think it's as good as Real New Fall but Unutterable certainly gets the lower end of the stick when talking about Fall albums. I also really like Are You Are Missing Winner, though I don't know if many people do..
|
Anyway, since I haven't done a top 10 in a few pages...
1. grotesque 2. slates 3. hex 4. dragnet 5. witch trials 6. perverted 7. saving grace 8. wonderful and frightening world 9. real new fall 10. room to live that's how I'm feeling right now... |
Quote:
I still haven't heard slates nor dragnet nor witch trials, which i see, is a shame since our local walking encyclopaedia ranked them so high. |
Hahaha.
They're great!! |
|
what about favourite tunes?
at the present time, I'd say: 1. I feel voxish 2. birmingham business school 3. 2 x 4 4. pat the dispenser 5. CNC mithering |

I love you and am sending you a wet kiss. however, i can download in about 3 hours cause I'm still at work |

YES! I FEEL VOXISH! "Offer offerrrrrrr". Haha. I love that song... it's one of the only ones Mark actually SINGS on.. hence the title. Um, lemme think, I've never been good at this, mostly because I don't remember song titles... 1. NWRA 2. Deer Park 3. C'N'C's Mithering 4. Wings 5. Bingo Master's Breakout 6. English Scheme 7. Barmy 8. Contraflow 9. Before the Moon Falls 10. Spector vs Rector Something like that. |

Since when do YOU like The Fall? |
Hah.
|
 a real good read.............. |
I wish I could find that over here for a decent price.
|
I can tell you the jist of the book w/o reading it... every chapter is about how somebody is "the C word" in Mark's opinion.
|
hahahaha
|
what do you mean, there is absolutely no mention of the word "cautious" in it!!!!
adam, that would be the dollar i reckon!!! its dirt cheap to buy from the states from here! |
It's $23 on amazon (plus shipping) right now, only used copies. Weird.
Jesus, Imperial Wax Solvent is $34!!!!!! More for a piece of plastic than a hardback book? Damn imports. This review on amazon.com is funny, though. It says the song "50 Year Old Man" is a test to the true fan of the Fall. Hahaha. |
ha, that works out at about 15 euros for the book.. thats cheaper than what i paid for it over the counter! i paid 25 euros
34 dollars, that is steep! for a cd from amazon i got the new negativland album for about 17 euro plus 8 of that was shipping costs..... may the dollar get weaker!!!!!!!!!!!! joking. i love your money! |
haha.
Money-loving rep. |
BY THE WAY.. THIS IS THE ONLY FALL SHIRT I OWN..I LOVE IT...
 on black shirt.. sorry....from another thread!! |
that shirt kicks ass.

 Anyone listen to this? It's a hoot. This is really good:  marc riley and the creepers |
Mark Smith (born April 10, 1967) is an American former race car driver born in McMinnville, Oregon. The son of Evergreen International Aviation founder Del Smith, Mark raced in Indy Lights from 1990 to 1992, finishing 3rd in series points his rookie year and 2nd in 1991, capturing 3 wins along the way. He then moved up to the CART series and finished 22nd in series points in 1993 for Arciero Racing and 19th in 1994 for Walker Racing. His best CART finish was 5th place in the 1994 Michigan 500. Smith was bumped from the field in his attempts to qualify for the Indianapolis 500 those two years. His 1993 bumping at the hands of Didier Theys occurred just 6 minutes before the end of qualifications that year.

I'm under the impression that IMPERIAL WAX SOLVENT is never coming out in America.
|
Hahaha.
It's too tough for us! |
serves you right for inventing peanut butter and jelly (its called "jam" people!!!!!) sandwiches....... why would anyone think thats nice!!!!
also what is it with you guys dropping your "u"s in certain words.. i mean honour is spelt honor? colour is spelled color..... serves yo right. anyway here is an p of imperial wax solvent for yo to se if yo wish to se it..... only joking.. i love the americans... i think they are a great bunch of lads..... like the japanese except a bit taller...... |
For some reasons, Americans and British people don't know how to spell dialog or cemetery.
In fact, I think I just spelled them wrong. Don't forget "theatre". |
