   F.A.L.L.O.U.T.P.O.D.C.A.S.T. EP183 : FALLOUT BOOK CLUB #7 "The Fallen" By Dave Simpson! Part 2. The Descent!

   The lads, joined by Dannyno jump back into Dave Simpson’s The Fallen — and there’s plenty to celebrate: cheeky barking anecodes, bizarre showbiz  characters, and all the tiny bits of Fall archaeology that make this book such a rabbit hole. However as we hit the second half of the book, we unreasonalby quetstion Simpson’s methods, his judgements and his take on The Fall, offering our own perky,and pungent criticism from our podcast ivory tower...where our book eh!! It's not as easy as it looks..or is it? And all the while we ask the bigger questions: Should journalists write books? Do journalists have to write books? And should we have a lie down? There are gems everywhere, but we’re not letting Simpson...or Smith off the hook. Deep dive. Brutal critique. Perky, pungent, poltergeist.

   Blur : Bside the Bsides : EP1. Leisure!

   Welcome to Bside the Bsides, where Ian and Brendan go rummaging around the edges of the Blur, digging into  b-sides to unpick the sound, the machinery around the band, the impact of Leisure, and what these supposedly peripheral tracks tell us about Blur. Before Modern Life Is Rubbish. Before Parklife. Before Britpop. Before the number ones! and the falling-out.....we’re going right back to the debut, the baggy Blur, the shoegaze nods, to find a band trying on several different hats while the whole indie landscape was changing underneath them. Leisure hit the top ten as did the single “There’s No Other Way”, but internally, the label dramas with Food Records, and David Balfe,  Albarn and Co flailing around trying to work out exactly what sort of band they were supposed to be. And so while Leisure gets remembered as the beginning of the Blur story, there’s a whole other Blur hiding on the other side of those singles songs like; I Know, Inertia, Mr Briggs, Won't Do It, Luminous, Berzerk, Explain, Uncle Love, Down, and more lay scattered across the early singles and elsewhere...and we're gonna rank em!

   F.A.L.L.O.U.T.P.O.D.C.A.S.T. EP182: Hooky but Deeply Mediocre

   SHOULDER PADS VS TOUCH SENSITIVE Impression of J Temperance Vs How I Wrote Elastic Man Another FALL SHOWDOWN, with big and tough songs going head-to-head. First up...Shoulder Pads is a relentless, pop bubble colliding with MES's sardonic, razor-sharp gallery of suburban grotesques YULE! up against Touch Sensitive's rockin' groove fit for commercials of cars and homes!! And then...Impression of J Temperance's Lovecraftian atmospheric tension building through skeletal instrumentation and sketches only Smith could muster. HIDEOUS! Going H2H with the bouncing, infectious bassline of Elastic Man, a manic, self-referential narrative about obsession, media manipulation, and bizarre artistic survival. Two Showdowns, four songs, and a further attempt to locate the exact point where genius and the real world mesh. Last 60something songs going H2H. Breathing hard and stuttering, and since 2021. A work in progress // Now due about 2027!! Cash for votes!https://www.patreon.com/c/FALLOUTPODCAST238 Big love to all those who fall.
