I am so much more excited about this than that last "thing" The Fall released.

Reformation Post: Total Lyrical Crap

Will be getting Von Sudenfed the minute it comes out.

Will be avoiding Narnack Domestsic release & New Single like the plague.

Long live lyric writing and working with musicians who are creative & innovative, rather than pointless, uninspired words set to music by badgered/cowtowed hired help told to jam on the same riff for 8mins.

I'm hoping Von Sudenfed carries on the torch of intelligent music & words while the "real" Fall stumble around like some half-improvised jam band with a leader who only wants to write lyrics about his own band endlessly.

Although I do like RPTLC, your complaints are not without merit, as neither of the last two Fall records hold a candle lyrically to COTC or Unutterable. But these do seem more focused, or at least thought out. This is not to say there are not good lyrics on RPTLC or FHR, but that they do not reverberate as profoundly as recent previous. Maybe the maestro has some rather dubious plans...

Great post. Totally agree.

The lyrics on RPTLC are a fucking joke. And not a very funny one.

Bring on Von Sudenfed.

This is more than promising, as well as the two MySpace-tracks... And "lunatic Delta blues" and "highlife-gone-Hawaiian reverie" - can`t wait to hear these. Roll on in May!

MES vocals on all tracks even acoustic guitar on a couple, the whole thing is wonderful unlike the last two Fall albums. Mark and the two mouse guys on the cover have very similar haircuts/haircolour, which made me smile.

Here's hoping this leaks before I go abroad in May so I can listen to it before buying it when I get back - because I'm certainly buying it. It sounds so much more vibrant than RPTLC, I guess because they're such solid producers.

I agree. The MySpace tracks are much more interesting than most of what The Fall have produced since The Unutterable. All the albums since have been patchy, and hearing the new material at The Zodiac the other night, I was underwhelmed, to say the least.

Where's anything to match the likes of Dr Bucks Letter or Paintwork?

I think it's more exciting that way, no snide comments intended! Look forward to previewing one of the tracks on the forthcoming Wired Taper Cd though. -------------------- New sounds abound at www.myspace.com/srjstuartjewkes Update: New release for December 2008 at www.archive.org release 2008

They seem to get on well. How long will that last.....

Not long, I wager.

I have it on good authority that MES, although initally cordial, suddenly turned on one of the two MOM guys (not sure which one) during the sessions, which I believe were done about a year ago. How bad it got, I do not know. Shocking, eh?

Yes, I'm very keen to hear this record.
