Fall, The - Bend Sinister / The 'Domesday' Pay-Off Triad-Plus!

Beggars Banquet - BBQ 2153 LP

Beggars Arkive is excited to announce the long-awaited reissue of The Fall's ninth studio album, Bend Sinister, originally released in 1986. This edition is titled Bend Sinister/The 'Domesday' Pay-Off Triad-Plus!

It was the last of three albums in a row produced by John Leckie and was named after a dystopian novel by Vladimir Nabokov.

After the universal acclaim for the previous year's This Nation's Saving Grace, Bend Sinister often stands in its predecessor's shadow. It is a dark, brooding album made at the height of the group's Beggars Banquet years and many people include this at the top of the list of favorite Fall albums.

From Bend Sinister, "Mr. Pharmacist" is a lurching installment in pop music's ongoing conversation with drug dealers, illicit and otherwise. Actually a cover of 1960s garage-rockers the Other Half, it's also a demonstration of how the Fall's relatively unchanging style could bolster other people's songs.- PITCHFORK
