the fall - Imperial Wax Solvent - Page 2

atsonicpark · 04.01.2008, 07:27 PM

Yeah, exactly Everyneurotic. This is what.. their 28th album? And yet they're still experimenting while still remaining... the Fall. Very consistent...

atsonicpark · 04.01.2008, 07:33 PM

Actually, it's the 26th. I just read mark prindle's great review of this: http://www.markprindle.com/falla.htm#imperial

PAULYBEE2656 · 04.02.2008, 09:44 AM

its their 27th right? does mark count slates as an album or an e.p. anyway the fall.. they are always different but still the same umistakable fall.

atsonicpark · 05.27.2008, 10:15 AM

I think I'll be hard-pressed to find a better song than "50 year old man" this year.

"I got a three foot rock hard on, but I'm too busy to use it, I'm a fifty year old man and I like it, I'm a fifty year old man -- What you gonna do about it? And don't forget you tried to destroy me, Steve Albini -- he's in collusion with Virgin Trains-ah."

...

SLUG: I had to laugh back in the late 80s and early 90s when you were doing more electronic stuff; there was a backlash among the supposedly cool people here, like, ‘The Fall sells out.’
MES: Yeah, Albini and all that bull … you know he wanted to do the new LP?
SLUG: That might be interesting from a production standpoint.
MES: Oh, fuck off.
SLUG: Who produces you now?
MES: Me

the ikara cult · 05.27.2008, 10:19 AM

No
Just no
Its Lazy
Its dull

MES needs to just do the stuff with Mouse On Mars, "The Fall" is dead as far im concerned, i saw them 2 and a bit years ago with the pre-Reformation lineup and they were great, but the last 2 albums have been shitshitshit.
MES needs to pair up with Von Sudenfed

atsonicpark · 05.27.2008, 10:21 AM

Damn, what's your hate with this record? Not that it matters, but almsot everyone agrees it's a creative, weird, imaginative, great record -- and for once I agree.

That stuff with Mouse on Mars sucked.

PAULYBEE2656 · 05.27.2008, 10:24 AM

ok. recent fall records..
unnuterable... pretty good to ok
country on the click- damn good to fist flying great
fall heads roll- fists flying classic fall album with 2 of the best fall tracks ever on it
post reformation tlc- poor, piss poor to be honest
von sudenfed- yeah, great little gimmicky album, nothing more than that
imperial wax solvent- sublime genius ahoy! even better than fall heads roll

and dont go saying i prefer live at the witch trials and perveted or hex.... we know cuz we all prefer them!!!!!!! that was then, this is now.... long live the mighty fall!

Tromattic Reflexxions rocked like a bastard!
Maybe its because youre American ASP

MES said that thing about it being your Gran(dma) on bongos and it still being The Fall. Thats the principle im applying, i think Mouse on Mars are the best band for him to work with.

atsonicpark · 05.27.2008, 10:31 AM

Personally, I hated fall heads roll but LOVED real new fall. The last album was pretty piss poor, agreed, though it had its moments. This one's fucking great though -- I think we can all agree on that. Even though I already did a fall top 10 I think I will again as I've changed my mind:

1. Dragnet
2. Slates EP
3. Hex Enduction Hour
4. This Nation's Saving Grace
5. Room to Live
6. Real New Fall
7. Perverted by Language
8. Live at the Witch Trials
9. Grotesque (After the Gramme)
10. Imperial Wax Solvent

Christ, i was hoping for some support from my European compatriots! Imperial Wax Solvent is DUSTIN THE TURKEY level laziness!!! Why is it only me!!!

atsonicpark · 05.27.2008, 10:33 AM

Hah.. yeah, I'm American, so I guess I don't "get" the Fall like everyone else. Hah. Then again, I don't think there's anything to "get". It's just consistently great music. I think they're in the top 10 best bands ever, easily. As I said on another thread, they're most consistent than Sonic Youth at least.

Their message board is filled with too many self-important shitheads though..

I have PBL, Hex Enduction and The Infotainment Scan as the the top 3 every time.
Personally ive never "got" This Nations Saving Grace. Its kinda how i feel about Sister, everyone disagrees with me
