Legends Of The...
The latest post on K-Punk, here, the second part of a 3-part essay on The Fall, my second favourite band of all time. It's an absolute fucking masterclass in cultural analysis; the only shame is he didn't make the link to Gogol. Here's to hoping he explores Hex Enduction Hour next.
And in other Fall news, the new album Post-Reformation TLC is out soon. I don't actually have any Fall albums after 1986, but I may well get this one: 'Das Boot' sounds like it's a real hoot.

Hex Enduction Hour ... one of The Fall's finest hours.
Does M.E.S. drop in from a parallel universe ... one in which Link Wray was bigger than Elvis?
He's more like the really ultra-cool uncle you always wanted - beery, disliked by your relatives, but gives you copies of Lovecraft and old Can albums. Oh, and speed. Lots of speed.
BTW, 'Hex' is my absolute No. 1 for The Fall.
