The fall

? by Jamie_Summers

the complete peel sessions is the best box set i've ever bought. there's no way that any other band could possibly hold my attention for about 100 songs practically non stop. AMAZING.

so...what's your favourite mark e. smith line ever ever ever?

i'm thinking

'as you masturbate with your shaun ryder face'

and

'lloyd cole's brain and face is made out of cow-pat - we all know that and herewith is an instrumental track'

Least favourite:

"You're dying for a pee / So you go behind a tree".

have you ever noticed

Loyd Cole and Felt sound identical. This worries me because Felt are good.

i thought that

"Remember when I used to follow you home from school, babe?
Before I got picked up for paedophilia..."

was pretty ace.

M E S yes he's the best

I've only got the first 80 minutes

of the box set and it's truly great, looking forward to getting the rest.

I can't think of a favourite line but the music is consistently excellent, really stripped down.

I used to have them on video, till it got blagged, from a really good tv programme. It was from right at the start, they were doing stuff like Industrial Estate and all looked about 17.
