Co-habs with a mass of blonde curls
Ooo-ar
T'pau
(mind moving fast is mad
Mind moving slow is sane)
It's [granpathy] fits set on eyes
[mazim] peculiar tan
He sports the maroon flares
Mind moving slow is sane
Mind moving fast is mad
Mind left stopped he's got
Writer in bed insane
Clutches pen in hand
The scrawl he wrote
Neighbour downstairs with one eye
Co-habs with a mass of blonde curls
Her shadow face
Mind moving slow is sane
Mind moving fast is mad
Mind left stopped he's got
Neighbour downstairs with one eye
Co-habs with a mass of blonde curls
Their babe cries
Craigness
Released by the English post-punk band Fall, "Craigness" stands as a defining track from their early discography, capturing the raw energy and atmospheric tension characteristic of their work in the late 1970s. The song exemplifies the band's signature blend of driving rhythms, distorted guitars, and a haunting vocal delivery that became central to their identity. Often associated with the darker, more experimental phases of their career, the recording reflects the influence of industrial and noise music emerging in the UK at the time. As part of Fall's broader catalogue, "Craigness" remains a critical listen for fans of the genre, showcasing the group's ability to create unsettling, memorable soundscapes that have cemented their legacy in post-punk history.
