¡®New Face In Hell¡¯ for me I think.
I've been so busy lately that I haven't been able to participate in the rejuvenation of FallNet as much as I'd like, but I will definitely chime in on this one. I think it was Grotesque, when it came out, that, once I got over the persistent initial-listening shock of hating it first, fully pushed the Fall into my "favorite band" status..?
New Face In Hell is definitely a prize. But I'd really be hard pressed to designate one track from it as "my favorite" or "the best." The whole thing is an amazing presence in the history of recorded Western "popular" musics.?
40 years old, holy crap. Glad I'm still around to enjoy it!?
