Album Review: Reformation Post T.L.C. by The Fall
Fairly Good, Based on 2 Critics
Based on rating 3/5
Last May, the Fall imploded, as is the Fall's wont, on stage in America. Reports vary as to what exactly happened before, during and after the show at the Brickhouse theatre in Phoenix, Arizona. One story has Mark E Smith abandoning the show in order to have a fight in the venue's car park with a member of the support band who had thrown a banana at him.
Opinion: Fairly Good
Since 2001's Are You Missing a Winner, it seems that Mark E. Smith's output has finally slowed, with albums of new material - grab bag affairs with plenty of brilliance rubbing shoulders with exasperation - appearing only biyearly. But when you overhaul bands as often as he does, it's amazing there's any output at all. Reformation is no exception, proving, no matter the lineup shifts, it's business as usual for the Fall.
