I've long suspected that Moddie,DD and the Prof were an utter disgrace, but this just is incredible, although to be fair G has sat on the prog table many a moon ago.

I don't know about that. Most of the times he looked like the bloke on the cover of Aqualung.

Didn't seem a lot of point in having a Nordic metal option, as it would only get one vote. Of course Nordic Metal is infinitely superior to the likes of Weller, Oasis, Blur and their ilk.

Aren't The Fall considered "Dad Rock" these days? Most of their admirers aren't exactly in the first flush of youth.
