do not stumble into the rabbit hole that is The Fall. Do Not Stumble. Do Not!
Do: listen to this cover of Sister Sledgeās āLost In Musicā by The Fall.
Something about this works on a deep level for me. Donāt you ever feel lost in music? caught in a trap? that the money is sur la table?
anyway. infotainment scan is i think the fallās second foray into semi electronic music. itās dope. itās accessible.
just dont rabbit hole the fall like i did this weekend. or do, and face the consequence.

In Evening Air is a personal all-time classic, but aside from a few singles here and there nothing from these guys has caught meā¦ until now!
I always described them as āTom Waits fronting a synthpop band,ā which is still true, but thereās a little more emphasis on the synthpop now. āThe Thiefā might be the best pop song Iāve heard in years.

I was initially drawn to Threshold after seeing a few friends post the single cover for this song. At the time I had no idea that it was my own friend Isaac (of Strange Ranger) behindĀ it, and he seemed happy that his mysterious new project fooled me.
Context aside thoughā this is one of the best songs I heard all year, and I guarantee that its minimal arrangement + hypnotizing chorus will pull you right in to its strange little world. And it doesn't stop there, this entrancing dream-like atmosphere extends to the rest of the album that arrived shortly after,Ā Thief. I feel like he's on to something truly new with this sound.

Probably my fave Bowie album- or at least the one that helped me locate a personal resonance with Bowie. Itās jagged, fragmented and manic- written coming off of a nasty coke addiction in Berlin (the coke addiction is NOT where I found personal resonance btw). Where in the hell am I, seems to be the question.
Always Crashing In The Same Car might be the best Bowie song. The poetics of repeated mistakes.

Listen, this aināt a hot take, and Iām pretty behind on this tune- but as far as song-titles that start with āI wannaā goā¦ this is currently in the 12th inning overtime with I Wanna Be Your Dog by The Stooges.
Seriously, the only thing I dont like about this song is that it ends. The Roses could go in and out of jams for 20 minutes using Ian Brownās chant as a refrain and Iād be listening to it all day.
Itās crazy. the music just comes at you like an airborne toxic event and overtakes you. The magic of the mix, I guess.
I still donāt think that their self titled is deserving of the best british album of all time. Madchester was a cute moment though.
Whatever this is, need more now.
