[leavethecapitol]

Male slags..Dead publisher's sons

Material hardship pawns

The Beat, Wah! Heat ...Male slags...

(Dog bites the dicks that feeds it)

Male slags...Academic male slags

Ream off names of books and bands

Kill cultural interest in our land

[LondonDada]

Slates pave the UK streets in '010.

Don't go out, for Christ's sake.

[vogelmandrie]

This rocks like Velvet, most interesting band of the eighties , no doubt about that

Mark E. Smith should be in the Hall of Fame but what the hell

means that

[KITCHENOFDISTINCTION]

Just the best of bands are The Fall. There ain't many which you open the wrapper & play with such hope or the fear it might just come to an end .Pleased to say, not too many disappointmentseven@ July 2010. A massive, geniusof a career & pity those who don't even know.

[MrWitchtrials]

@KITCHENOFDISTINCTION Been a fan since early 80s.There is a cycle now,play to death,need a change,return in 3months,another rush! Just returned to Slates,never my fave but it's knocking me bandy. Vive Le Fall,the greatest band ever!

[merked1980]

@MrWitchtrials couldnt agree more.. Best band ever over such a long period of time bar none.. just wish they had a few more female fans..

[MrWitchtrials]

@merked1980 Know what you're saying.Been drip-feeding my missus The Fall for 10yrs now.She still hates 'em! Most blokes think of one thing when the missus goes out.I'm thinking Hex Enduction,LOUD!!!

choon

[Ordsall66]

This track is fantastic

[nuMbERsRuNN3R]

And became trite, uptight Deaf and bereft A liberty mess Female slates Make pins of your whims Break your balls , suck your thoughts Rip off bands With stuck up hair and new shitty pants New beatniks with hoop shirts Big priest - give us a break Help me to fight the slates Male slags....

[nuMbERsRuNN3R]

Here's the definitive rant Slates drive me bats Therefore I say hey slates give us a break Male slags, slags slates and tapes Everything's strained by the States They are the grey ones of our state I relate Male slags.... And slates, break hard, break hardly Break the slates for Christ's sake Male slags... Male slags, knock over your drink Pay for correct amount spilt Male slags...

[nuMbERsRuNN3R]

Remember slates are always outta date

In the fine light of day they have to face

Well I can't give a definition

The consequences of their plagiarisation

Male slags

With greedy bastard scrubbed hands

Kill jokes join gangs

Kill the safety in our lands

Male slags...

In the cold nearly old ska Jamaican dawn

[nuMbERsRuNN3R]

Dead publisher's sons Material hardship pawns The Beat, Wah! Heat Male slags... (Dog bites the dicks that feeds it) Male slags... Academic male slags Ream off names of books and bands Kill cultural interest in our land Male slates With creaky pants and scrubbed hands Okay mates Let's get onto the valley of weights The valley of weights is the valley Where they cast off the weights

[nuMbERsRuNN3R]

How would you describe the slates?

Don't start improvising for God's sake

They are the grey ones of the state I relate

Everythings strained by the states

The valley of weights

Okay mates

[Steve7508]

don't start improvising for God's sake!

[diViSiONdeJoiE]

So good!

[PeeyanoKeys]

The Jesus and Mary Chain only wished they could ever hope to possibly sound like this

[dave0665]

HELL YEAH!
