Our Take

If you're looking for a sonic rollercoaster ride that will leave you questioning reality and shaking your hips in equal measure, look no further than The Fall's latest offering, "New Facts Emerge." This album is a wild and unpredictable journey from start to finish, with Mark E. Smith's signature screeching vocals cutting through the chaos like a drunken sailor navigating a stormy sea.

From the opening track "Segue," which bombards you with a cacophony of disjointed sounds and cryptic lyrics, to the closing track "Groundsboy," a haunting meditation on mortality and the fleeting nature of existence, "New Facts Emerge" is a masterclass in avant-garde punk rock. The band's erratic energy and refusal to conform to any sort of musical conventions make this album a thrilling listen for those who like their music with a healthy dose of unpredictability.

Tracks like "Fol De Rol" and "Couples Vs Jobless Mid 30s" showcase The Fall at their most frenetic and experimental, with layers of dissonant guitars and off-kilter rhythms creating a sense of controlled chaos that is as exhilarating as it is disorienting. Even on more subdued tracks like "Printhead" and "Second House Now," Smith's distinctively acerbic wit shines through, providing a darkly humorous counterbalance to the album's more abrasive moments.

In short, "New Facts Emerge" is a challenging and exhilarating listen that is sure to delight fans of The Fall and newcomers alike. Strap in, hold on tight, and prepare to have your musical boundaries pushed to their limits.
