Code: Selfish Reviews
Interesting but average
Code: Selfish is one of The Fall's more obscure albums from the early 1990s. The first track, Birmingham School Of Business, has a complex structure with churning guitar patterns; Free Range has a faster driving beat, while Return is a hypnotic number with interesting synth and guitar interplay. Time Enough At Last is closer to traditional rock, as is Everything Hurtz with its urgent beat and almost punk feel. Immortality has a chugging beat and Just Waiting has some delicious jangling guitar parts. Gentleman's Agreement is a gentle rock ballad, and Married, 2 Kids is a type of mid-tempo story song with jazzy touches. The problem is the lack of really gripping songs. None of them remains in the mind after repeated listens. Shift-Work is the only other Fall album that I'm familiar with, and I like it more than Code: Selfish which is not a brilliant album but does offer enough of this band's inimitable genius to please the fans and satisfy those who love idiosyncratic rock.
Reissue of 1992 Fontana Label Album.
