Mark E Smith of The Fall reads HP Lovecraft

No, really. And if anything even more bizarre and rambling than it sounds.

Fantastic. Put a rudimentary beat, a crunchy garage rock riff, and a cheap ass keyboard behind it and it's a new Fall cut.

Still not as scary as him reading the football results. I love that video.

That lip-licking thing freaks me out. He did that the whole time when I saw The Fall. He also sat in this big red leather chair, wore black gloves, and had a broken hip. He's one of the best old men ever.

Yeah, but he's been bumming me out the last decade or so. He needs to ease off the sauce and pep already. It's a shame really. It pains me to say it because I'm a huge fan.
