About this product
Product Information
A definitive insight into the ever-influential world of Mark E. Smith and The Fall, featuring never-before published essays and ephemera from fans, collectors and the artist and band themselves. 'They are always different; they are always the same.' John Peel Over the course of their prolific forty-year career The Fall were consistently one of the most influential and unique groups Britain has ever produced, with frontman Mark E. Smith hailed as one of the country's sharpest lyricists. Following Mark E. Smith's death in January 2018, there was an outpouring of tributes from a surprising spectrum of admirers. With contributions from Adelle Stripe, Dan Fox, Elain Harwood, Mark Fisher, Ian Penman and others, alongside never-before seen artwork, photographs, and hand-written material from Smith and the band, Bob Stanley and Tessa Norton book unpack and make sense of the strangely fascinating landscape of The Fall. Illuminating their reference points, lyrical concerns and influences, from shipping dock procedures to Manchester City and contemporary dance to German experimental rock, this book cements their worldview as a vital contribution to British culture. Excavate: The Wonderful and Frightening World of the Fall is the definitive atlas to help you navigate The Fall's idiosyncratic world.

Reviews
"To 50,000 Fall Fans: pls. buy this inspired & inspiring, profound & provocative, beautiful & bonkers Book of Revelations, choc-stock-full of loving Acts by true Apostles, simultaneously both the scrapbook you wished you'd kept and a portal to futures & pasts, known & unknown, & a Fantastic Celebration of this Nation's Saving Grace." -- David Peace "Mind blowing ... There is so much to be enjoyed in this brilliant book." -- Tim Burgess "This collection of ephemera and essays strives to pin down the mightiest post-punk phenomenon of them all, taking a psychogeographical creepy crawl around Smith's hometown and investigating - among other topics - his "new puritan" work ethic and love/hate relationship with "professionalism"." -- Uncut "For more than four decades, The Fall have been all things to all people." -- GQ " Excavate! ...gives readers a look inside the brilliant and briar-y mind of frontman Mark E. Smith." -- Rolling Stone "There's much fun to be had . . . punctuated by fabulous ephemera, vintage interviews and carbon-copied originally lyric sheets." -- Mojo "This wide-ranging anthology of scholarly essays, sleeve artwork, lyric sheets and other ephemera is a satisfying reminder of Smith's scabrous wit, unique visual style and rich literary hinterland." -- Classic Rock "An insane hardback fanzine of found items from one of Mark E. Smith's carrier bags and essays by a really fascinating variety of people . . . this whole book is the most wonderful, unashamedly intellectual, pretentious, ridiculous, exciting hymn to this incredible group." -- Andy Miller, Backlisted Podcast " Excavate! is testament to the power such an effort sets out to rationalise, domesticate and destroy, placing The Fall in the hidden heart of the last 40 years of contemporary art."

The Wonderful and Frightening World of the Fall actually works a little like a museum exhibition, a bit like a eulogy and a lot like pornography for Fall fans...the book is a largely satisfying shrine to Smith's legacy." -- Washington Post
