Available Domestically on Vinyl for the First Time Since its Original 1979 Release!Dragnet is arguably The Falls best-known album. With the departure of Martin Bramah after Live At The Witch Trials, the band underwent yet another lineup shift in late 1979. Marc Riley switched to guitar and Steve Hanley joined on bass; the latters signature basslines would become a major part of The Fall for the next two decades.Opening track Psykick Dancehall strikes like an elusive, working-class anthem with its bouncy tempo changes and Mark E. Smiths unfiltered vocals raining down on the dance-floor. Dice Man takes its direction from disheveled beats, stuttering lyrics and asymmetrical phrasing. Somehow Dragnet manages to be even more lo-fi than The Falls debut, yet reveals a cohesive sound and fierce songs that would further build the bands cult following.Superior Viaducts edition is the first time that Dragnet has been available on vinyl domestically since its initial release in 1979. Liner notes by Brian Turner.
