The Fall: The Real New Fall LP (Formerly Country on the Click), 12" Vinyl Edition

˜The Real New Fall LP (Formerly Country on the Click) is the 23rd studio album by The Fall. Originally released in the United Kingdom in 2003, Cherry Red Records is delighted to present this 20th anniversary re-issue. Originally recorded at Lisa Stansfields Gracieland Studios in between December 2002 and January 2003 with producer Grant Showbiz. The subtitle is explained by the fact that the tracks were originally scheduled for release in April 2003 under the title ˜Country on the Click. Promotional copies were sent out and three of the new songs were previewed in the bands 23rd Peel Session, but Mark. E Smith was unhappy with the mix and decided it needed further work. Alex Linhardt of Pitchfork called it "as valuable an album as anything The Fall ever released in the 1990s" and stated that "Smiths lyrics are at a near career-best of insolence and nonsense. AllMusics David Jeffries wrote that the album "gives the faithful another reason to believe". Helen Pidd, reviewing the album for The Guardian, viewed Smith as being "on magnificently mad form. Uncut called it "Great by Smiths standards. Practically genius by everybody elses. Spin praised it as "an atavistic orgy of recycled riffs and lifelong obsessions".  MOJO reviewed it as "as good as anything in this groups monstrous catalogue. Pop Matters called it "their best record in a decade. This Set as with the other Fall reissues has been compiled in conjunction with Fall expert Conway Patton and has notes by Fall guru Daryl Easlea and was mastered by long time engineer Andy Pearce with art by Becky Stewart.
