Don't really get the hype around The Fall. Very inconsistent album; a few great tracks, a few lackluster, and a few in the middle. Not much to keep me consistently entertained, more of a choice cut kind of album. And it can't just be me who thinks most of these tracks overstay their welcome a bit. Anyway, it's good stuff generally, and for me that's worth 7/10. Nowhere near 10 though. Also is it just me or are people voting 10/10 and 1/10 just because they can. Rate fairly people. Not every album is going to be 10/10. The Fall is not even close to the best post-punk, and there's no 11/10. It just seems like people are compressing the scale around 10 and 1 and there are barely any ratings in between, especially on the last couple of albums.
