T'neet!! We are thrilled to chat with Daren Garret of Pram, The Nightingales, Pubic Fringe...and, natch, The Fall!!! (plus many many more)...
As you are hopefully well aware, Daren ushered in the splendid late era double drummer line up form about 2013-2015, playing on Sublingual Tablet as well as The Remainder and Wise Ol' Man EPs.
He's a lovely, lively chap and regaled us with many a tale from his time in and around TMF...well worth a listen!!
Here's a plylist of a good chunk of Daren's musical gems.
and here's our Patreon if you want to comment and vote on the podcast.

T'neet! Remember a few weeks ago I asked what the best Fall drum tracks were? No? Alright, whatever. Anyway, I had a plan! Find out what the best ten Fall drum tracks were and then get Paul Hanley to come on and talk about them!! One of those things was easier than the other.
It was a delight to objectively once and for all to define what the best Fall drum tracks are. If you don't know, then listen to this to find out, because now it's been decided and WE CAN NEVER CHANGE OUR MINDS!!
Many thanks to Mr Paul Hanley. Go and buy his damn book! Buy all his books, they are great. https://www.route-online.com/blog/post/paul-hanley
And I promise we still do the showdown competition...suddenly, certainly..

T'neet we were lucky to be able to sit and have a chat with Spenser Birtwistle about his two stints on the TMF drum stool.
The lad has seen a fair bit of the world! What a journey!! From Jangle Pop Peel gems, to creating "the first indie dance record", losing a guitarist to the Smiths, taping up Hooky's drum machine, writing a top ten for Black Grape, Sacking Craig Leon, Rob Gretton supported Dub excursions, Wembley with the Roses, Twisted Nerve, that ill-fated Tucson Corkscrew and 911!!! Heck of a chat with a heck of a chap!
Heads will Roll!!!

Saturday Mar 15, 2025
Saturday Mar 15, 2025
T'night our commitment to actually having some sort of Fall showdown continues to be questioned we spend an hour or so with Ex-Fall (aren't they all at this point) drummer, Mr Mike Leigh. You know who is. We chat about his cabaret days, somersault myths, the madness of writing with The Fall, those Dragnet production choices....and what came next—post-Fall, post-punk, and back to the cabaret world. A proper good natter with plenty of stories and laughs along the way!

T'neet yet another entirely necessary detour from the main competition. Yet again we are in the MES solo/collaborations bracket. This fourth and final set of songs means that we have finally listed to every Fall and MES track out there (probably!). This episode features more stuff form Panda, Pander, Panzer & Post Nearly Man, lashings of Von Sudenfed, some Inspirals, Elastica, Tackhead, Edwyn Collins, Ghost Digital and a dash of Blaney. Enjoy!!
