| | Fall Light User Syndrome CD - Import Fall Discography of CDs
British edition features two bonus tracks: covers of "Last Exit to Brooklyn" and "Last Chance to Turn Around."
Coming nearly two decades into the band's long and amazingly prolific career, 1996's LIGHT USERS SYNDROME is an excellent example of The Fall's '90s work. Though unfortunately lacking the presence of Mark E. Smith's ex-wife Brix, who had briefly rejoined the band for this album's predecessor, CEREBRAL CAUSTIC, LIGHT USERS SYNDROME nevertheless maintains some of that album's guitar-pop-oriented vibe. It is a welcome return to form for the band after the more electronic releases of the early '90s. The opening "D.I.Y. Meat" is one of Smith's best songs in ages, an impassioned rant about vegetarianism and politics, while the album ending "Secession Man" slyly quotes the Kinks. LIGHT USERS SYNDROME is a worthwhile starting point for neophyte fans daunted by The Fall's prodigious output.
Low price 2002 reissue of 1996 album featuring the return of guitarist Brix Smith. Includes 2 bonus tracks 'The Chiselers' & 'Chilinist'.
Includes liner notes by Daryl Easlea and John Peel.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
The Fall include: Mark E. Smith, Brix Smith (vocals); Julia Nagle (keyboards).Q (8/96, p.118) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Those...attuned to the variations in Fall output, might judge THE LIGHT USER SYNDROME a pearl....Mark E. Smith has never been better...as the cantankerous MC whose lyrics could be cryptic crossword clues..."
Alternative Press (4/97, pp.71-72) - 5 (out of 5) - "...the nastiest little slice of angular rock abstraction since BEND SINISTER....a new energy fills The Fall, replenishing their spotty wells with the youthful piss and vinegar of legend."
NME (Magazine) (6/8/96, p.50) - 7 (out of 10) - "...no-one sounds exactly like [Mark E Smith]....The ingredients are pretty much the same as ever: pinballing rockabilly riffs; awesomely sludgy, chundering basslines; a cyberspod having a very public nervous breakdown..."

Light User Syndrome album
$19.98  
It's a commonly held opinion among fans and band alike that Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' lone live album, 1986's Pack Up the Plantation, didn't quite capture the group at its peak, so there has been a long-standing need for another live set, which 2009's Live Anthology finally provides. Like its closest cousin, Bruce Springsteen's Live 1975-1985, Live Anthology almost overcompensates for the long wait by offering almost too much music, cherrypicking highlights from 1978 to 2007. In its simplest incarnation, Live ...

Light User Syndrome CD music
$11.18  
It's no secret that John Mayer is a 21st Century Fox, wining and dining women all through tabloid headlines, so it's about time he delivered an album that traded upon his loverman persona -- and Battle Studies is that record in spades. Retaining more than a modicum of the slick, soul-blues undertones of Continuum, Mayer fashions a modern groove album, a record that maintains a smooth seductive vibe so thoroughly it spills into a one-man band cover of "Crossroads." Mayer remains somewhat of a disciple of Slowhand, but he shows an unusual interest in the big AOR stylings ...
| | Michael Gira What We Did CD (2001)
Light User Syndrome music CDs
$11.85
This set by Swans and Angels of Light frontman Michael Gira and Windsor for the Derby frontman Dan Matz is a small wonder of sophisticated songsmithing and an exercise in complete collaboration -- something that (on this level at least) wasn't happening either in the pop or indie rock worlds at the time of this album's release. There is a relaxed, airy feeling in these songs, and a remarkable consistency of purpose and production in that they were recorded over two years at irregular intervals. There is the blissed-out drift and swoon in "Pacing the Locks," with Matz on lead vocals barely articulating his words above the guitars and Gira's layered backing chorus. And on "Is/Was," there is a long, sleepy/slippery ...
