it's cool that they recognize that Sparta and Blindness were two later additions to the Fall's greatest "hits"

What he became or what he always was has near killed his work for me. I don't really want to listen to The Fall any more and they used to be a sizeable chunk of my world.

Amstell.
no, he would've been 9 at the time. the voice is very similar though.

good. but i think they missed a trick - the Fall equivalent of that one scene in the trailer with ed sheeran suggesting he rename it "Hey Dude".(/me tries to think of an example, fails)― koogs, Wednesday, July 17, 2019 8:39 AM (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink

lol just catching up with more recent posts. yesterday 2 v good. and yes, he could be v charming. know absolutely what NV means about late Smith. there was a cult of personality which was boosted by media and fans, and which in his largely repetitive and often tedious interviews (that late biographical book he did a good example) he didn’t do much to put any distance from. but i think the late music is often v good, both live and on record (tho oddly often the bad records were good live and vice versa, and by god there were some mediocre gigs - i stopped going for a while). and occasionally the charm would come through again, in his christmas messages to fans, things which he’d written himself.

I know, so weird seeing ppl like Lydon on that show trying their best not to be hateful about Nick Kamen or Glass Tiger.
― Maresn3st, Thursday, 12 March 2020 12:16 (six years ago)
of course, there was one other Kinks cover in 1988 that unfortunately seems to have failed to have made that show
(watching MES respond to Is This The Life would have been sweet haha)

^Totale's Turns is my go-to/"pick-one-only" Fall album (and I'm on intimate terms with their entire catalogue through Extricate).
― I eat fast foods (morrisp), Monday, 4 May 2020 16:08 (six years ago)
Well that's different!
― Angry Question Time Man's Flute Club Band (Tom D.), Monday, 4 May 2020 16:12 (six years ago)
I mean, Hex and PBL are world-class, gold-standard albums... but I'm reaching for some Fall, Totale's is what I hit Play on.
― I eat fast foods (morrisp), Monday, 4 May 2020 16:15 (six years ago)
Post-Extricate Fall are clearly worth getting intimate with. Only fair-weather fall fans listen to the first 12 albums and ignore the final 19! ;)
― Michael F Gill, Monday, 4 May 2020 18:28 (six years ago)
I've bought a few over the years, but nothing's really Clicked (that's a clever album-title pun)... I fully admit I'm like the Star Wars fan who's only seen the big movies, etc.

Aren't all Star Wars films big movies?
― Angry Question Time Man's Flute Club Band (Tom D.), Monday, 4 May 2020 18:48 (six years ago)
I mean, hasn't read any of the books or watched the animated TV series, like next-level SW fans. If it's unfair to compare '90s/'00s Fall appreciation to that level of fan devotion, choose yr own analogy!
― I eat fast foods (morrisp), Monday, 4 May 2020 18:52 (six years ago)
Post-Extricate Fall has many, many great songs but I find their albums inconsistent. Even the mighty "Unutterable" falls down the last 4 or so tracks. But a cherry-picked 90s/00s/10s playlist will take your head off.
