Description

With many incarnations, The Fall (1976-2018) were one of the most influential bands to emerge in the British Post-Punk Scene.

Their unique sound and distinct iconography have had a lasting impact on music fans and performers alike.

This book disassembles The Fall’s significant contribution to music.

Based on up-to-date original research, the book separates fact from fiction and offers a thorough investigation into The Fall and their founder/leader Mark E Smith, in particular.

Given The Fall’s complexities (their wide range of influences; multiple line-ups and ‘anti-music’ stance), the book draws upon a wide range of academic disciplines, including ethnomusicology, sociology, literary theory, linguistics, journalism, cultural studies, and film and media studies, in order to unpack the group’s influence and legacy.
