Description
The Fall‘s fourth studio album Perverted by Language was originally released in 1983. The album was produced by the band’s vocalist and songwriter Mark E. Smith, and recorded at various studios in Manchester.
Perverted by Language features some of The Fall’s most renowned tracks, including “Garden”. The album’s sound is characterized by its sharp and angular post-punk guitar riffs, driven by a heavy bass and drums rhythm section, all layered with Mark E. Smith’s distinctive vocals. Lyrically, the album deals with themes of alienation, disorder, and the unpredictability of modern life. Smith’s idiosyncratic and cryptic wordplay, including his penchant for inventing new words and phrases, adds to the album’s overall sense of unease and dislocation.
Despite its challenging sound and lyrics, Perverted by Language is considered by many critics and fans to be one of The Fall’s finest albums, showcasing the band at their creative and innovative peak.
Perverted by Language is available on audiophile black vinyl and includes an insert.
