blindness the fall

'shambling retard' ... excellent.. that should be the name of the next album. You have to love these lads

Ha ha,he's no angel,but,I've been listening to the 'shambling retard' for 30 years now,still makes me smile :)
He can't dance,he can't sing,STILL better than anything, that X-factory puts out :)

He's a frickin great keyboard player too. Who knew?

Fall fans! im looking for a tune of theirs i heard on j peel around early 90s and havent been able to find. i thought it was a collaberation with manc band intastella, because MES says "intalstella/interstellar during the track, ill be honest its a lighter sound to other fall tunes but i know it exists, i can still remember the tune.. not much help here i know and not much to go on but i understand there is some fall fans that know ALL their work. anyway thanks!

not surprisingly mark e smith leaves on a bad note

Such a weird combination - lethal, focused, tight-as-fuck band fronted by broken-down shambling retard. The Fall are amazing, but I really wish someone would punch Mark E when he tries to fuck with their equipment.

Karl Burns actually did!

What is good about going to a Fall gig: 1) Finding yourself in the front row 2) Being driven by the ambient hysteria 3) Finding yourself pulling a cable to get the mic Mark E let drop on stage 4) get a couple of smiles from Elena______ Just came back from The Ferry in Glasgow, best gig I ever seen. Cheers, Mark E.

I totally agree with that I was there also at the front of Elena.Brilliant gig.
