Jesus, the beat and the drums and the bass. The Fall were so far ahead of their time, most people don't even know they ever existed... but they left their inexorable gash across all music, forever.
Serious band one of my top fives the fall and I can't name the other four...but the fall definite...I remember them for music videos yrs ago but I grew up in 80s 90s haha listening to goa techno trance...only in the last 10yrs or so listening on youtube tank fk.for youtube...ya top five
Very difficult to say but this is probably my favourite Fall Peel session of them all... it might change tomorrow but all four of these tracks are pure genius.
You might like their song 'No Bulbs', i just uploaded a video that i created to that song, its my recent upload om here if you and anyone else wants to see it. Justin
@@leighbennett1961 I don't remember making this comment and I don't know why I said it was Brix. I must have had a reason though. Mayb e I read it somewhere. It does sound like her style to me but I may be wrong.
Gotta agree with MartinT82, this session is outrageously fabulous. Would have loved to see these dudes live. Often I feel cheated being born at the bottom of the world.
Purely incredible and currently my favorite peel session of all time. The version of US 80’s 90’s is imo the best version of that song ever recorded. Was mark a psychic or a well read man? 1890’s US 80’s 90’s 2020’s back to the 50’s.. it remains the same. True genius imo.
The Falls song No Bulbs, well i created a video to go with the song, if anyone wants to see it ? Its in my recent uploads, alternatively simply just type in The Fall No Bulbs and look for my username.
mark e smiths was a brilliant song and sound inventor of the late 70s til late 80s. all very clever and surprising, lots of stuff noone else would do or have done before, but..geez his voicings and lack of melody singing is unbearable at some point. on the other hand maybe its all just working out like that.
They did sessions for Janice Long and David Jensen, they're available on the omnibus edition of the wonderful and frightening world of the fall. I'm not sure if they did any others although I've got a niggling suspicion that they did.
