The Fall

If one were looking to check them out what would be a good album to start with?
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

This Nations Saving Grace - acessible but still full of Fall trademarks
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

I already have that one. Not really feeling it though.

I have only one of their albums -- whichever one has "Telephone Thing" on it. I never really played it and then when I got a mp3 player, I ripped the songs and loaded them on the player. I don't think I even got through half the songs before I was deleting them and hoping I had bought that cd used. Truly horrible crap.

But good luck with your download. :wink:

I like that one and the debut Live At the Witch Trials (which you have to love just for the title!)

This isn't probably well regarded by Fall fans but I really dig that song Edinburgh Man.

Most accessible line-up was with Brix E Smith in it.The rest well...........I walked out of a Fall gig last year it was that bad.Most of it is repetitive garbage tbh.

Reading up on them and it seems to be the consensus (among reviewers at least) that Brix was the secret ingredient.
