The Fall

this is the best band of all time

it might be escapism or delusion but these days I kinda really really wish MES was still around

what if he were Freak. E Smith, though.

#markesmith much missed

I ended up in the 1860’s, I’ve been living there for 125 yeahsss

u better cab it up slowly ! !

Without Mark, there'd never been Thom Yorke or Radiohead. There. I said something important. =8)

Музыка не для всех

Every time I see this band mentioned, I think with amusement on the pettiness, bitterness, and unprofessionalism of Mark E. Smith when he cried out upon hearing Mumford & Sons rehearsing at Glastonbury, "Somebody shut those cunts up!"

RIP, Big Man. One of a Kind. 🖤

took me a while but i think i finally understand the love for the fall

last cool band left

Mark E. Smith is such an incredible lyricist. His words to me are like the embodiment of the surrealist concept of "objective chance," where unpredictable encounters with unexpected words give rise to the emergence of new ideas and wild daydreams. Call his lyrics nonsense, sure, but I appreciate abstract lyrics because ordinary objects such as chairs, clocks, and colours lose their primary sense and speak to me differently, expanding my attention beyond what is objectively visible. The Fall is just endlessly inspiring<3

some of the coolest shit

It's literally insane to me that they never made it on to tge Trainspotting soundtrack.

the best band ever

horrendous, I love it

The kids should listen to this instead of Idles

Goblin music

Hello! I make music under the name "Avargyűjtő" (Fallen Leaves Collector) in Budapest, Hungary. In addition to Surfrock and Krautrock, I primarily follow the traditions of contemporary Eastern European and Russian Post-Punk. I don't make money with my music, and I don't plan concerts either. I have money, and i don't want to be famous. For me it's just about the Post-Punk, Krautrock and Surfrock legacy, which I'm trying to authentically carry forward. ...........................................................

it's almost impossible that a band as perfect and audacious as The Fall ever existed. we didn't know how good we had it.

Без Смита тоскливо. Даже если бы новые альбомы были хреновые (как нередко было с поздними), с ними было бы веселее и задорнее. Кажется, регулярный новый гнусавый, речитативный, агрессивно-ритмичный (почти любой) альбом The Fall — то, что должно сопровождать реальность, чтобы она чуть меньше скатывалась к хуям собачьим.

The best. Rip MES - truly one of a kind.

Возможно, самая важная группа ещё того пост-панка.На наших полях, хоть и известна (благодаря интернетам) но проще сказать, что ты слушаешь Fall, чем реально слушать Fall.

Damn, O-Mit is such a blast. So powerful, so real. How ruthlessly great MES was, can't even describe that mix of respect and grieving I felt while listening

Does anyone know what happened to FHR on spotify? Are some labels fighting over rights again or they preparing a fucking remaster reissue again?

just starting to get in to them, can anyone recommend me some songs and albums.

THIS NATIONS SAVING GRACE IS ACTUALLY ONE OF MY FAVE ALBUMS EVERYONE NEEDS TO LISTEN TO THE FALL AND WE LOVE MARK E SMITH

the fall (uh)

just started getting into fall absolutely LOVE them so very underrated. if anyone has any reqs pls drop them here x

when you listen to a random fall song by accident and then you realize it's the best song ever written and then you realize it's only got 3.2k listeners on last.fm and then you realize that's like every fall song

H.B. M.E.S.

Mental music

I'm incredibly sad that I will never be able to see them perform live. 😔

I am Bricks Smith

I have dreams I can see...

I feel obliged to explain my last entry concerning Marcel Duchamp and The Fall. What I meant was to call atention to the dadaist tendencies of the band. With all its acid, witty lyrics that may seem to be nothing but gibberish to some and highly erratic and idiosyncratic musical achievements, The Fall seem to incorporate and disseminate Dada into the spectrum of music as a whole. Just as Duchamp did with Art in the beginning of the XX, which was, acts of total destruction towards art as it was then conceived, The Fall manages to do the same: it takes musical elements and dissect it, poke at it, take it out of context, and all and all, destroy it. The goal of The Fall was to kill music as per se, and in the process, they made one of the most unique, bizarre, wretched, engaging, putrid and dada music and art. Innovation through destruction. Don't believe me? Look at their album covers! They're making fun of the music industry, themselves, me and you too!

is MES the most based musician to ever exist?

Hey how’s it goin

Marcel Duchamp's favourite band!

Evil Mark E Smith be like: The Rise
