Amelodic, cacophonic and magnificent, The Fall remain the most enduring and prolific of the late-'70s punk and post-punk iconoclasts. An Armchair Guide chronicles in depth their leviathan back catalogue creating the most complete Fall discography ever published, while documenting the historical and musical background to more than seventy different LPs (plus reissues) and as many singles. The band's history is also documented year-by-year, filling in the gaps between the record releases.
