the fall: frenz experiment (expanded edition)

Beggars Arkive is excited to announce the reissue of The Fall’s 10th studio album, 1988’s THE FRENZ EXPERIMENT. The releases both contain the original album, plus singles and B-Sides. The LP version contains extensive sleeve notes with new interviews. The notes included with both formats contain brand new interviews conducted by Daryl Easley in May 2020. In 1987, The Fall scored their first UK Top 30 singles chart position with their cover of the Northern Soul standard, “There’s A Ghost In My House”, and supported it with a series of career-best shows. “Hit The North”, one of their much-loved anthems, followed in October and then, finally, The Frenz Experiment – which contained these songs, was released at the end of February 1988. tracklisting: A1 Frenz A2 Carry Bag Man A3 Get a Hotel A4 Victoria A5 Athlete Cured B1 In These Times B2 The Steak Place B3 Bremen Nacht (Vinyl version) B4 Guest Informant (Excerpt) B5 Oswald Defence Lawyer C1 There’s a Ghost in My House (from There’s A Ghost In My House single) C2 Sleep Debt Snatches (from There’s A Ghost In My House single) C3 Mark’ll Sink Us (from There’s A Ghost In My House single) C4 Haf Found Bormann(from There’s A Ghost In My House single) C5 Bremen Nacht Run Out (from the Bremen Nacht Run Outsingle, included w.initial pressing of the album) C6 Northerns in Europ (from the Hit The North single) D1 Hit the North Part 1 (from the Hit The North single) D2 Australians in Europe (from the Hit The North single) D3 Guest Informant (B-side from the Victoria single) D4 Tuff Life Booogie (B-side from the Victoria single) D5 Twister (B-side from the Victoria single)
