  • Summary: The Mark E. Smith-led band's 26th studio album (give or take) features yet another new lineup of musicians (who also play in Los Angeles outfit Darker My Sweet), as the previous set mutinied on tour last year.

    The Fall are the best new band in Britain.

    An energised splicing of riff, declamation and technology that sounds like a thrilling synthesis of 2003's The Real New Fall LP and 2005's Fall Heads Roll, delivered with the highest levels of vigour for some time. [Feb 2007, p.92]

    Tender and loving it might not be, but one of the albums of the year? Definitely.

    But for all the defiance, something is audibly wrong with much of Reformation Post TLC.

    Another solid album from The Fall. Great to see them getting some recognition after almost 30 albums over the years. Perhaps the bass line intro used in the Nissan (?) car commercial has reviatlized their career or at least given them some mainstream exposure. If you are familiar with The Fall, you should find this latest release very rewarding and worth multiple listenings. Enjoy!… Expand

    As a diehard Fall fan, I can't help but be disappointed by this. At least Fall Heads Roll had Blindness
