ABOUT THIS ITEM

Being a fan of Mark E. Smith's the Fall is no doubt nowhere near as frustrating as it must be to be in his band, what with the way he fires people, it must go as far as demoralizing. Still, the fans were hit pretty hard on the way to Reformation Post-TLC when commander Smith dumped the cracking Fall Heads Roll band in the middle of an American tour, save the keyboard-playing wife. They were just awful, he claimed, and while they certainly were not, this Fall album (don't even try to count them) is filled with new life, new ideas, and every reason the cult needs to keep worshiping this fickle, inconsiderate, and ungracious band. Pulling another obscure idea out of an extremely eclectic record collection (Lee "Scratch" Perry, the Move, and the Monks have been covered before, Merle Haggard, Amon Düül, and Captain Beefheart are all referenced later on this album). There may even be a whammy bar on this album and, for the first time, incidental chatter with bandmembers actually laughing clearly audible. The album's title is supposedly inspired by fellow Manchester bands that are "Totally Lecherous C-Words" reuniting and it's easy to see how Smith is flippantly using this half-American band -- another first -- to make sure he has no connection to legend, reverence, or anything else graying musicians receive from their graying fans. He's inspired, as are the band who are given more room to roam than previous editions and in turn offer more ideas.
