MES is a tough one. Who's left? No-one can touch him.

the world without Mark E Smith? kin ell

THE KING OF THE NORTH!

i have tried and tried but i cannot ever find a way into the fall

Try this

It's a great distillation of arguably their best period and it has the superior live versions of a lot of tracks, including that fucking cracking version of Winter that I just posted.

i'll give it a shot. i like a song here and there but it's never really clicked. mark e smith had some zingers though

“I think the original Blade Runner is the most obscene film ever made, I fucking hated it. The Man in the High Castle is one of my favourite books; how they fucked that TV show up I don’t know,” Smith told the Guardian. “The only good Philip K Dick film is Total Recall, it’s faithful to the book. Arnie gets it. I was physically sick watching A Scanner Darkly, it was like an episode of Cheers painted over except they all smoke dope and imagine women with no clothes on."

“We were playing a festival in Dublin the other week. There was this other group, like, warming up in the next sort of chalet, and they were terrible,” Smith told the Aussie magazine Brag in 2010. “I said, ‘Shut them cunts up!’ And they were still warming up, so I threw a bottle at them. The bands said, ‘That’s the Sons of Mumford’ or something. ‘They’re number five in charts!' I just thought they were a load of retarded Irish folk singers."

lol, all of the songs linked so far are from more than 30 years ago, probably the worst kind of obituary a working musician can have.

hardly a surprise, all musicians get shitter as they get older.,

The 90s was def a dodgy Fall period but he returned to form in the 00s with The Unutterable and so on. Von Sudenfed LP with Mouse on Mars is really good too

Hit the North was their only good song.

Tele bye bye. (sorry)

RIP Tinky Winky

You don't know what you are talking about. 

Not for the first time from the insipid Eugenius.

How radical to question Mark E Smith's legacy. How very very very radical.

Imagine a time with them both in a locked room together to see who would make it out alive, legacy still intact.

i don't think you understood what i was talking about.

incredibly Shane Macgowan lives

The Fall aren't The Rolling Stones. Some people may have posted older tracks but do a bit of research otherwise you sound like a tit.

I'm sort of irrationally bummed that the Teletubbies guy died, and in such an ugly way. At least it was the one I cared about the least as a kid

RIP
