Genius. As ever with Mark E. Smith. It’s getting about time for him to have another fight with all the members of The Fall, sack them, and recruit a bunch of dead-end kids from a sink estate as his new backing band.
PS: Next week, could we have Mark Leidner doing his own interpretation of a Fall song? Please? I’m willing to pay good money.

Mark E. Smith looks like he was just poured into that mullet.

“Wings” apparently was John Peel’s fave song of all time: Motown beat, monster riff, time-travel lyrics — let’s take a look, shall we . . .
Purchased pair of flabby wings.
I took to doing some hovering.
Here is a list of incorrect things.
Hovered mid-air outside a study.
An academic needed his chin,
Sent in the dust of some cheap magazines.
His academic rust, could not burn them up.
Recruited some gremlins.
To get me clear of the airline routes.
I paid them off with stuffing from my wings.
They had some fun with those cheapo airline snobs.
The stuffing loss made me hit a timelock.
I ended up in the eighteen sixties.
I’ve been there for one hundred and twenty-five years.
A small alteration of the past. can turn time into space.
Ended up under ardwick bridge.
With some veterans from the u.s. civil war.
They were under irish patronage.
We shot dead a stupid sergeant,
But I got hit in the crossfire.
The lucky hit made me hit a time lock.
BUT, when I got back.
The place I made the purchase, no longer exists
I’d erased it under the bridge.
Day by day.
The moon came towards me
By such things.
The moon came towards me.
So now I sleep in ditches.
And hide away from nosey kids.
The wings rot and feather under me.
The wings rot and CURL right under me.
A small alteration of the past.
Can turn time into space.
Small touches can alter more than a mere decade.
Wings x 17.

Love those lyrics. And the delivery, too. Long before I knew from The Fall I saw that video and “they were under Irish patronage” stuck with me for days and days and days.
And the guitar, too. It sounds like all six strings are tuned to the same note.

He definitely used to get the most he possibly could out of exagerratedly enunciating every word — and now after decades of cigs and speed he’s gone in the opposite direction, getting the most anyone ever has out of mumbles and growls.

I know none of you know who I am, but this music sucks. My hunch is Matthew’s penchant for turning a word, or finding one well turned, far better than friday’s musical hunch and crunch.
