The Fall were an English post-punk band, formed in 1976 in Prestwich, Greater Manchester. They underwent many line-up changes, with vocalist and founder Mark E. Smith as the only constant member.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>First associated with the late 1970s punk movement, the Fall\u2019s music has always pushed & challenged boundaries, with Mark. E. Smith at the helm on and off stage, the band has always been characterised by an abrasive, repetitive guitar-driven sound and tense bass and drum rhythms, along with Smith\u2019s caustic lyrics, described by critic Simon Reynolds as \u201ca kind of Northern English magic realism that mixed industrial grime with the unearthly and uncanny, voiced through a unique, one-note delivery somewhere between amphetamine-spiked rant and alcohol-addled yarn.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Fall have been called \u201cthe most prolific band of the British post-punk movement.\u201d From 1979 to 2017, they released thirty-two studio albums. They were long associated with BBC disc jockey John Peel, who championed them from early on in their career and described them as his favourite band, famously explaining, \u201cthey are always different; they are always the same.\u201d Earlier this year, Smith died at the age of 60, effectively putting an end to the group.<\/p>\n

No other band in the world can touch The Fall\u2019s magnificence and sheer volume, which are captured here in ‘Box of Ten #2’. Issued on Cog Sinister, The Fall\u2019s official label, and following on from the \u201cSet of Ten\u201d released last year, this is a\u00a0limited-edition set (only 500 units) of 11 discs of previously unreleased live recordings, spanning three decades. The earliest recording taken from 1984 and the most recent 2014.<\/p>\n

Live in Cork 2012 is a bonus disc and will not be available to buy separately.<\/p>\n
