Comments for Fall, The, The Infotainment Scan

The best of the Fall's recent albums.

Easily my favorite Fall album.

As an old fan of the Fall, I was very disappointed by this and by much of their output in recent years. Maybe I'm too old to appreciate it, but this sounds like pointless music to me. track 1 was pretty cool. I recommend listening to something with more energy and artistic concept to it, like the Fall's early records or Lee Perry (who they cover here).

It's a record I played a lot in the summer of '93 (right after it was released), but I'm not compelled to spin it terribly often these days. Maybe the fourth best Fall rec this decade (after LUS, CC, Shiftwork - no order on these 3)?

This is a brilliant album! Favorite cuts: I''m Going To Spain, Ladybird, Lost In Music, Paranoia Man In Cheap Sh*t Room....

One of The Fall`s best albums. A change in their style, using much more electronics than before. Several tracks are simply perfect (check-out Service or Lost In Music). Mark E. Smith keeps is peculiar way of saying his texts.
