Today's guest is our friend Kevin Phillips, talking about one of our collective favorite bands, albums and artists - "What to say about such a complex and abundant subject that’s been a longstanding touchstone for aficionados of repetitive noise and abrasive melody! As a nearly life-long disciple of Mark E. Smith and his unrepentant arrangements, I chose The Fall’s debut album, ‘Live at the Witch Trials’, for our discussion. As hypnotizing or electrifying as the Fall became in dozens and dozens of moments across their 31-album catalog, ‘Live at the Witch Trials’ contains the unrefined initial surprise attack stream of consciousness rhythmic repetition amid scrambling guitar strings that must surely become trademark joy of any fully realized Fall fan!! A challenging gateway to a musical landscape that developed into a myriad of different compelling and/or disorienting studies of the initial concept! Enjoy!!
