The Fall discography

The Fall released many recordings following their inception in 1976, often inviting use of the tag 'prolific'. Their first release as a group was the EP Bingo-Master's Break Out! (1978), and they released a studio album at a rate of almost one a year from their debut Live at the Witch Trials in 1979 to their final album New Facts Emerge in 2017.

gollark: That's too vague, but roughly what I thought of, yes: use a pretrained language model and treat it as a classification task of some kind.
gollark: Maximum harm is probably wrong, ++choose allows phrases, and that isn't trivial to do anyway.
gollark: Never mind, I know how I would implement that but I don't think it'd be very good.
gollark: How would I even implement that?
gollark: There is no* bias toward long-term damage to lyricly health.
