Here's the promo blurb to entice the punters: http://www.metrotheatre.com.au/events/2015/10/21/the-fall THE FALL Supported by Gold Class WED 21 OCT @ 8PM Price $63.50 Bookings (02) 9550 3666 Mode Concert Mode - General Admission Standing Tickets On sale now @ The Metro Theatre & Ticketek Seminal English group THE FALL will return to Australia this October A peerless and totally original group The Fall and its leader Mark E Smith have a place as one of the most pre-eminent groups in any discerning musical history across the last five decades. The Fall, more than any other group are definitive and transcendent of a whole musical world and pop culture post-punk. The Fall are famously the favourite ever group of the legendary UK DJ John Peel and their 24 Peel Sessions between 1978 and 2004 (a record number) are testament to the brilliance of Mark E Smith and to Peel who more than any other music presenter in the world set the agenda for new and challenging music. PeelÕs perfect characterisation of The Fall Òalways different, always the sameÓ has fallen into common musical folklore and parlance. If youÕre a fan of The Fall they will never let you down. Always evolving, always relevant, always vital, always uncompromising, always The Fall. The Fall is noted for its prolific output. Released in May, Sub-Lingual Tablet is The FallÕs 31st studio album in a 39 year history. In addition to the studio albums they have released more than triple that, counting live albums and other compilations. Essentially built around its Founder and only constant member, Mark E. Smith, The Fall formed in Manchester in 1976 and has existed ever since. Smith has shuffled The Fall line-up countless times over the years and as a result the group always remain fresh, vital, energised and unlike any other band. The current Fall line-up is Peter Greenway (lead guitar), Keiron Melling (drums), Elena Poulou (keyboards,vocals), Mark E. Smith (vocals) and David Spurr (bass). The FallÕs official biography prosaically notes that Òthe groupÕs music has gone through several stylistic changes over the years, but is often characterised by an abrasive guitar-driven sound and frequent use of repetition, always underpinned by SmithÕs distinctive vocals and often cryptic lyrics.Ó Other people describe The Fall more in terms of superlatives, in terms of awe and respect using words such as genius, unique, inimitable, enigmatic, provocative, exciting, incomparable, iconic and simply Ð some of the very best music and albums ever made. The last time The Fall played in Australia was in 2010 when they played a blinding set to enraptured audiences. What you waiting for then? Welcome once again to The Wonderful and Frightening World Of The Fall. ThereÕs no better place to be. --------------------------------------------- After numerous playbacks I'm speechless. This was an astonishing show. enjoy! x
