THE LOUDER THAN WAR #1 BOOK OF THE YEAR A ROUGH TRADE, THE TIMES,
MOJO, UNCUT, THE HERALD BOOK OF THE YEAR This is not a book about a
rock band. This is not even a book about Mark E Smith. This is a
book about The Fall group - or more precisely, their world. 'To
50,000 Fall Fans: please buy this inspired & inspiring,
profound & provocative, beautiful & bonkers Book of
Revelations.' DAVID PEACE 'Mind blowing . . . there is so much to
enjoy in this brilliant book.' TIM BURGESS 'A container sized
treasure trove . . . I strongly advise you to buy it.' MAXINE PEAKE
'The most wonderful, unashamedly intellectual, pretentious,
ridiculous, exciting hymn to this incredible group.' ANDY MILLER,
BACKLISTED Over a prolific forty-year career, the Fall created a
world that was influential, idiosyncratic and fiercely original -
and defied simple categorisation. Their frontman and lyricist Mark
E. Smith spun opaque tales that resisted conventional
understanding; the Fall's worldview was an education in its own
right. Who wouldn't want to be armed with a working knowledge of M.
R. James, shipping-dock procedures, contemporary dance, Manchester
City and Can? The group inspired and shaped the lives of those who
listened to and tried to make sense of their work. Bringing
together previously unseen artwork, rare ephemera and handwritten
material, alongside essays by a slate of fans, EXCAVATE! is a
vivid, definitive record - an illumination of the dark corners of
the Fall's wonderful and frightening world.
