What you say No-one has reviewed Imperial Wax Solvent by The Fall yet. Give us your opinion on Imperial Wax Solvent by The Fall. What we say This record left our BRIAN D feeling ecstatic. Was little concerned when I heard the last Fall lp. They've been doing "good one, weak one" for years now. 'Imperial Wax Solvent' is a goodie, his lyrics getting a bit more interesting & coherent again here (hehehe!) The music twangy, driving, repetitious, discordant, timeless. Just garage kraut boogie grind. I fucking love this band. They're a bit mental, like me. There's also a strong return to experimental peppering of tunes to keep them vibrant & current. One of the best ever Fall albums was 'The Light User Syndrome' a dark, warped stew indeed. This has strong shades of that tough nut psychosis, IE 'I've Been Duped' is like a weird new wave Stereolab punk rocker with the sultry missus on vox. A real cracking decade dissolver, it sounds brand new retro, like out of time, Monks style. He fucks with tape drop outs and odd sound levels on 'Strangetown' with it's early PIL riff giving way to hypnotic classic cowtown Fall guitars. He's a mad old badger is Smith but he fucking knows how to make a wickedly trashed record. You can tell he's been chilling on Mars with those two German androids too. If yr curious just buy it. If yr a fan bloody insist on it! What the label says:    1. Alton Towers    2. Wolf Kidult Man    3. 50 Year Old Man    4. I've Been Duped    5. Strange Town    6. Taurig    7. Can Can Summer    8. Tommy Shooter    9. Latch Key Kid   10. Is This New   11. Senior Twilight Stock Replacer   12. Exploding Chimney

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
