Power Fall
Like most Fall albums, this one contains filler, but the strong material is lethal. From the steamroller opening track "New Big Prinz" to the surprisingly pretty instrumental "Overture From 'I am Curious, Orange'" amusingly pockmarked by Brix' ejaculations, to the disturbing "Jerusalem" to the vintage Fall "Wrong Place, Right Time" to the Fall's inimitable take on the HIV epidemic "Van Plague?" ("father takes it in his stride, says 'back in the closet, son'") this album loads the Fall canon with classic after classic. If you are forced to put together a 20 track "best of" retrospective on the Fall, at least two tracks will come from here.
Ballet? From the Fall?
The soundtrack to the title ballet that the Fall were involved with, 'I am Kurious Oranj' was an upward swing after the disappointment of 'The Frenz Experiment.' Though there is a share of weak tracks, there are still plenty of great moments and some songs remain some of The Fall's best of the Brix-era: "Wrong Place, Right Time," "Big New Prinz" and the "The Overture" instrumental.
CUTTING EDGE
This album is very experimental and it's hard to define the sound. Two songs, New Big Prinz and Kurious Oranj, are classic post-punk and my personal favorites. The rest are avant-garde, featuring some instrumentals and strange arrangements. If you got rid of the instrumentals it would be better, but overall it's a very good effort by the Fall.
Must Have Classic!
Performed in concert with avant-guarde ballet artist Michael Clarke, this CD was very ahead of it's time. Mark E. Smith gives one of his best performances of his life giving the audience great music, lyrics that make you think and some great political and historic references. Listen to it a few times, and you can't stop...
