Week 45: 20/03/09 - 09/12/09

And the Fall almost enter the Tens/Teens/Tenties? And they drag me along with them. This saw a single release: Slippy Floor - a tour seven inch. The new development in the Fall release schedule is that 45s come out for one off events: tours, record store day etc. These things haven't come out on CD yet so I've ended up buying a few Fall 45s. Not that super rare one but still.

And this is The Fall of the almostt Tenties, The Real New Fall of course. And It Continues. The upswing of the ascending of the Fall. This is a really great little single - Mark and the Band are gelling again and there's a little bit of interplay between them. Slippy Floor (god knows what it's about) could lyrically be from the 80s - all metaphor and growling. Hot Cake continues the grime (Though it's clearly Slippy Floor again), maybe that's the part 2. All drums and electronics. Then they do a live version of Strangetown AT THE CAMDEN CRAWL. Who would've believed that the superest indie festival of all time would continue and host the Fall in 2010. It's a cracking version though, Mark takes about 30 minutes to come on stage and then mumble shouts his way through the song. And then they're off. On another wacky adventure. Adventure-uh.
