"Feel the wrath of my Bombast!" exhortsSmithon this follow-up to their groundbreakingWonderful and Frightening World of... the Fall, and this collection is ample proof of the pure confidence the group had at this time. Stompers like "Barmy," "What You Need," and the mighty "Gut of the Quantifier" are all led byBrix Smith's twanging lead hooks, filled by distorted guitars and bludgeoning drums, on top of whichSmithrants with conviction. But it's the departures from this sound that mark the real interest here: The synth-driven "L.A." looks ahead to the Fall's experiments with electronica; "Paint Work" is an impressionist piece interrupted bySmithaccidentally erasing over some of the track at home; and "I Am Damo Suzuki," a tribute toCan's lead singer, which borrows its arrangement from several of that group's songs. The Fall sound mysterious, down-to-earth, and hilarious all at the same time.
All Tapes / CD's / Records etc. are tested and play great.
