Interestingly, a great friend of mine who dislikes Gorillaz but enjoys a lot of ambient music thought that what he had heard from The Fall was great. So I guess it all depends on what you're into.

I thought Plastic Beach was fantastic I enjoyed the whole journey theme a lot. Melancholy Hill, To Binge and Cloud Of Unknowing are all in my opinion fantastic songs.
I will confess to being a massive Damon Albarn fan and so am undoubtedly biased, I have PB on a par with Demon Days.
The Fall is a funny little album, not so much an album as a sort of experiment, they had a pretty cool count down to the release on the website giving out a little gift every day was a sort of advent calender thing. The album itself is alright I find it quiet listenable The Parish Of Space Dust is my favourite track on it, absolutely love it.
