‘Greatest hits’ compilation, the first time a complete overview of The Fall’s career has been available on vinyl.
When the CD was originally released it was seen as the most complete and best overview of the bands recorded work and has yet to be bettered.
As with the other Fall re-issues it has been compiled by Daryl Easlea (who also wrote the notes) in conjunction with Fall expert Conway Patton and has been mastered by long time engineer Andy Pearce with art by Becky Stewart.
The Fall were an English post-punk band, formed in Manchester in 1976. The band existed in some form until 2018, built around its founder and only constant member Mark E. Smith.
Initially associated with the punk movement of the late 1970s, the group's music went through several stylistic changes over the years, but was often characterised by an abrasive guitar-driven sound and frequent use of repetition, and was always underpinned by Smith's distinctive vocals and often cryptic lyrics.
The band was noted for its prolific output: they released over 25 studio albums, and more than triple that counting live albums and other releases.
They never achieved widespread public success beyond a handful of minor hit singles.
The band were long associated with BBC disc jockey John Peel, who championed them from early on in their career and cited The Fall as his favourite band, famously explaining, "They are always different; they are always the same."
