Originally released on \u003cstrong\u003eStep-Forward\u003c\/strong\u003e in 1981, the LP compiles the group’s first four singles recorded for the label between 1977 and 1979—Bingo-Master’s Break-Out, It’s The New Thing, Rowche Rumble and Fiery Jack—none of which appeared on any of the band’s studio albums. (Also included is “Dice Man” from 1979’s Dragnet.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaken together, these 7-inches are \u003cstrong\u003eThe Fall \u003c\/strong\u003eas they initially emerged from the primordial soup of ’77 Manchester, pushing out from founder \u003cstrong\u003eMark E. Smith’s\u003c\/strong\u003e poetry-collective origins into the early punk scene. Right from the first track, “Repetition,” Smith and crew’s working-class art punk is in full effect. His obtuse lyrical brilliance and inimitable vocal delivery ride atop the band’s ringing atonal guitar, looping basslines and propulsive drumming—complemented by wheezy combo organ tones. The tracks from each 7-inch are presented here in reverse chronological order. The Fall’s fierce contrarianism defines the early UK punk sound and, at the same time, sounds nothing like any of their contemporaries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe revolving cast of band members includes \u003cstrong\u003eMartin Bramah\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eUna Baines\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eKarl Burns\u003c\/strong\u003e as well as \u003cstrong\u003eMarc Riley, Craig Scanlon\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eStephen Hanley\u003c\/strong\u003e who would remain in \u003cstrong\u003eThe Fall’s\u003c\/strong\u003e classic ’80s lineups. Many of their best-known songs are featured here—from “Psycho Mafia” and “Rowche Rumble” to the Mayo Thompson-produced “Fiery Jack.” Superior Viaduct’s edition is the first time that 77–Early Years–79 has been reissued on vinyl. Includes liner notes by Stephen Malkmus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.
