The Fall The Light User Syndrome

Since relaunching this year, the Iconoclassic label has brought a Graham Parker gem to CD in an expanded edition and delivered a definitive reissue of B.T. Express' debut album.  On July 1, the label will add another feather to its cap with a 2-CD deluxe edition of The Fall's lone album for Jet Records, 1996's The Light User Syndrome.

For nearly 25 years, Holiday maintained an incredible tenure in the major label reissue business, working at BMG's Buddha and Heritage imprints, surviving a 2005 merger with Sony Music (and BMG's divestment

Fall Singles packshot

John Peel famously summed up his favorite band, The Fall, as such: "They are always different; they are always the same." So it's little surprise that the Manchester post-punk group's complete singles output would take up a box set - a 7CD box released by Cherry Red Records this week. The Fall's The Singles 1978-2016 will collect the sides issued by the group during those years on a number of labels, most notably Rough Trade, Beggars Banquet and Cherry Red itself, the group's current label

First up is a reissue of How Long: The Very Best of Ace, one of the surprisingly few career-spanning sets by pub-rockers Ace. The band's brief brush with
