Ersatz G.B - Fall (The)

BRAND NEW STUDIO ALBUM FROM THE LEGENDARY THE FALL 

Since their formation in 1976, The Fall have released twenty eight studio albums, and more than double that number of live albums, compilations and other packages.

"Ersatz G.B." is their 29th offering, and, as with any Fall record, retains many of their most distinctive elements whilst offering a fresh take on Mark E Smith’s familiar style and subject matter. The current line-up of Smith (vox), David Spurr (bass), Elini Poulou (keys), Pete Greenway (guitar) and Kierion Mellings (drums) are now relatively established by Fall standards, and deliver another intriguing addition to the band’s body of work here. This, their first album for Cherry Red Records, contains all the trademarks of a great Fall album. It will be issued on CD, LP and digital formats, and will be proceeded by a new 7” single, featuring an exclusive B-side track. The Fall will be playing several dates to promote the album’s release, including a UK tour in November and an appearance at All Tomorrow’s Parties in March.

Vinyl Edition, and Limited 7 Inch Single ALSO AVAILABLE

Press:-

"As is customary with The Fall, Ersatz G.B. offers no easy explanations, but instead twists and excites the listener’s brain with unexpected phantom bewilderments.”  

-Ian Harrison (MOJO – December 2011)
