stubborn but with sudden moments of beauty

It’s angry and dark

Spastic & aggressive synth heavy rave-ups

they’re something of a party band

Less than two years after a staggering return to the solo career that further cemented his status as a legend

FALL, THE - 45 84 89: A Sides LP cold wave stubborn but with sudden momentsLimited edition white colour vinyl. Highly recommended. The seventeen songs collected here come from The Fall's Brix Smith era, aka "the golden era of Fall releases." This is a perfect introduction to the band, and as legendary critic Robert Christgau said, it's "The only Fall record any normal person need own".
