I still dig The Fall after all these years even though Mark's reduced himself to a mumbling, growling drunken shadow of his former self. He was a great lyricist and story teller in the past. Check out that link above to see him at his speed fuelled best. Recent output has been sketchy I think and a little too formulaic but even though his powers are waning a Fall gig can still be dynamite. Watch out for Fall fans though...the band have long attracted chin stroking media types and even more so now the music has become more accessible...their forum can be a horribly smug and self absorbed place.
Gigs being pencilled in for October time so it looks like the new album will be out around then.
