I dunno, Room to Live is probably the worst Fall album I've heard, and even that seems pretty good

we did a "worst Fall album" on regular ILX and I think Reformation TLC won that.

Fizzles otm, I do think there were some interesting arguments brought up wrt the overall approach of what "bad Fall" means, but he was so wrong when it came to the album in question.

Meh. I think he was way harsh, to the point where a weird sort of bitterness begins to creep into the tone (15000th album? Really?). But I gotta admit: when he called EGB a parody of what the Fall has been doing for the last few years, he comes p near to my initial gut response to the album...
But 2.2 is way offtm
