Seminal British post-punks the Fall have been through so many stylistic and personnel changes that it`s easy to forget the unadulterated fury that marked the band`s early recordings. HEX INDUCTION HOUR features the classic late-`70s lineup, full of scratchy, occasionally discordant guitars, forcefully spastic rhythms and Mark E. Smith`s trademark rants that combine the punk aesthetic with unfettered beat poetry. Smith`s narratives are often difficult to follow, but like much great poetry, it`s the gestalt that matters most. HEX ENDUCTION HOUR features some of the best-known songs from the Fall`s early period, including low-key 6/8 "Hip Priest" and the roaring "The Classical," making it a must-have for fans of the group`s punkier side.
