listening to Fall albums feels like murder to me
It appears he's as much a cunt as he is a legend.
haha
legend
DIY meat
Haha.
Of course he's a cunt. We've known that for years. My favourite story about him is that he once sacked one of his roadies for eating salad. Ledge!
almost certainly him just talking shit
^ this
it's a bit of a bitch move talking anything he says at face value.
* taking, even
also given that its mark e smith
and he in no way would have the ability to kill a red squirrel with some hedge trimmers
i hope this is true
i can just imagine him chasing squirrels around with scissors. just look at the man!
bring back the hunt!! oi oiii
Uncut da voice of der kidz
"To suggest in a magazine read by youngsters that it is a good idea to harm wildlife is both extremely stupid and highly irresponsible."
How many "youngsters" read Uncut?
I read it when I was wee
but I worked in a newsagent and read everything. Good times.
Also, leave squirrels aloooooone!
Im a big fan
but he has been talking shit for 30 years and doesn't look like stopping soon.
Also I find it hard to beleive that he trims hedges
this thread, and this comment in particular
are my favourite ever
To make matters worse, the maverick frontman went on to add that he
"wouldn't have a problem with running over seagulls for fun"
haha, genius. chris morris didnt write that article perchance?
Good on ya Mark!
Squirrels are tree vermin!
^ Kill 'em all
and rats and mice too.
Good.
I, on the whole, like birds but seagulls can fuck right off.
That's sure the finest headline of all time
* ly
to be sure.
"veteran guitarist"????
please dont anyone kill a squirrel for the next few weeks
i want to prove anyone who spells claire with a 'k' most conclusively wrong.
then the seven "youngsters" who actually read uncut can go back to their squirrel-killing ways.
he certainly murdered R Dean Taylors 'Gotta See Jane'
etc etc
*There's A Ghost In My House
"backyard bloodbath"
lol. I saw the fall at the roadmender last month. They were amazing. Also Bobby Peru suppourted them. Anyone know much about these?
There was a guy with a laptop doing weird mash-ups before the fall who was like something out of Nathan Barley but the fall came on soon after his laptop almost got drenched by beer. Anyone at this gig? was my first fall gig and was memorable.
The Fall
are one of those bands that passed me by and I never did pay much attention to bar the odd track no matter how much my mates tried to get me to like them. not sure why.
Well said mate
I thought I was the only one ... recently download the greatest hits (from the Brix poppy period) and although the odd one is OK I just don't get it. Emperor's New Clothes if you ask me. The only bright side to Peel's demise is that you never hear the miserable bugger on the radio any more.
I meant MES not Peel
... obviously ...
^phew! I though it was just me
who can't get into the Fall! The only track i Can say i really like with Mark E Smith is the Inspiral Carpets's We Want You.
silly buggers^
/with
a music taste as undemanding "anything with a good beat that isn't I am Kloot.", i can understand you not getting into it, but give it another go sometime. Sit in a squalid flat somewhere drinking and eating reduced food with a general selection turned up very loud. You will appreciate. There is more truth to be found in these songs about what life is like in this country nowadays than most places else, however indecipherable it is. Plus, there is groove.
:D
This guy should not be given the oxygen of publicity. Shock value statements for teenagers trying to get parents' attentions, not middle-aged men trying to sound hard or edgy.
- Maggie, Bournemouth
Obviously he has too much free time on his hands now that he has been consigned to the forgotten loser's list.
- Linda, Birmingham
"What a despicable man"
he's not exactly Mark E. de Sade
ho ho.
When I saw the Fall couple years back
Mr.Smith still had the price label attached to his new jeans. No squirrels in there though...that i could see at least
