Description


All Fall Down is the third studio album by English post-punk band the Sound, recorded from March to August 1982 and released in November 1982. The Sound were a band ahead of their time, and All Fall Down stands as their definitive contribution to their legacy. Despite facing commercial pressures from their label, Adrian Borland and the band stayed true to their artistic vision, delivering a masterpiece of post-punk melancholy and timeless songwriting. The album's ten tracks, marked by a sense of longing and introspection, showcase Borland's poetic lyricism and emotive vocals, from the haunting beauty of 'Monument' to the raw energy of 'Red Paint,' each song leaving a lasting impression. Despite its initial lack of commercial success, All Fall Down remains a hidden gem for those who appreciate music that speaks to the soul.
