What is this website about?
There are other sites about The Fall and we don't want to replicate their excellent work.....
We have a few simple aims in life and they are as follows.......
A virtual Fall Fanzine
We enjoyed working with Fallfandave on The Pseud Mag and we thought it would be good to continue the mission......also we felt we ought to use the power of t'internet rather than all that tedious messing about with John Bull printing kits and staples.
You can find the latest and prior issues by accessing Reformation! Post TPM and selecting the volume of your choice.
The Fall On You Tube
An attempt to gather together all of the live, TV Spots and promo vids with links on one page - a work in progress here
The Fall Track Record
A complete listing of all the tracks associated with the group based on the great work Clayton Hayward did a few years ago
The Fall Live and Track Record
We plan eventually to completely review every Fall gig that there has ever been, also Mark Smith's side projects, and appearances by musicians in their new projects post-Fall. We also review and rate every Fall song ever played live, and those never played live so that you can access a comprehensive track record of the group's history.
This is inevitably, given the massive output of the group, a "work in progress"!
Fall Alumni
We find out what ex-members of The Fall are up to in musical terms and look into the music they are producing now
