"content": "\u003cp>Recording Academy President Neil Portnow faced criticism Monday for his remarks after the 60th annual Grammy Awards ended with only two female winners on stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following the awards show Sunday, many music fans and critics questioned whether the Time’s Up movement was just given lip service when the only woman nominated for album of the year, Lorde, didn’t perform. Instead, multiple minutes on the telecast was given to male artists who weren’t nominated, such as Sting and the band U2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the red carpet was filled with artists sporting white roses to symbolize support of gender equality, backstage after the show wrapped Portnow was questioned about Lorde’s absence from the stage, as well as the fact that only two women were shown on TV accepting awards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has to begin with women who have the creativity in their hearts and their souls, who want to be musicians, who want to be engineers, who want to be producers, who want to be part of the industry on an executive level, to step up,” Portnow said backstage after the show. “Because I think they would be welcome. I don’t have personal experience of those kind of brick walls that you face. It’s us as an industry making a welcome mat very obvious — creating mentorships, creating opportunities for all people who want to be creative, and, really, paying it forward, and creating that next generation of artists who feel like they can do anything, say anything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Criticism for Portnow’s comments was swift. Grammy-winning singer Sheryl Crow tweeted Monday: “I wish the #Grammys would return to female/male categories. Who will young girls be inspired by to pick up a guitar and rock when most every category is filled with men? I’m not sure it is about women needing to “step up”, (as said by the male in charge). #GrammysSoMale”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actress Debra Messing joined in the criticism, writing on Twitter: “This is incredibly dismaying to say the least” in regards to Portnow’s comments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Recording Academy did not immediately return an email seeking comment Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were no women nominated in the record of the year category and the only male to be nominated in the best pop solo performance, Ed Sheeran, won. Alessia Cara won best new artist and Rihanna also got to take the stage when she and Kendrick Lamar won best rap/sung performance for “LOYALTY.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for why Lorde didn’t get to perform solo, Portnow said, “We have a wealth of riches every year and it’s hard to have a balanced show and have everybody involved. Every year’s different. We can’t have a performance from every nominee. We have over 80 categories. And so we have to realize that we’ve got to create something that has balance and so on and so forth, and what you saw was our best judgment on how to do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Lorde, she seemed to address the controversy when she tweeted Monday morning, “If you’re debating whether or not I can murder a stage… come see it for urself.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Instead, multiple minutes on the telecast was given to male artists who weren’t nominated, such as Sting and the band U2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the red carpet was filled with artists sporting white roses to symbolize support of gender equality, backstage after the show wrapped Portnow was questioned about Lorde’s absence from the stage, as well as the fact that only two women were shown on TV accepting awards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has to begin with women who have the creativity in their hearts and their souls, who want to be musicians, who want to be engineers, who want to be producers, who want to be part of the industry on an executive level, to step up,” Portnow said backstage after the show. “Because I think they would be welcome. I don’t have personal experience of those kind of brick walls that you face. It’s us as an industry making a welcome mat very obvious — creating mentorships, creating opportunities for all people who want to be creative, and, really, paying it forward, and creating that next generation of artists who feel like they can do anything, say anything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Criticism for Portnow’s comments was swift. Grammy-winning singer Sheryl Crow tweeted Monday: “I wish the #Grammys would return to female/male categories. Who will young girls be inspired by to pick up a guitar and rock when most every category is filled with men? I’m not sure it is about women needing to “step up”, (as said by the male in charge). #GrammysSoMale”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Alessia Cara won best new artist and Rihanna also got to take the stage when she and Kendrick Lamar won best rap/sung performance for “LOYALTY.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for why Lorde didn’t get to perform solo, Portnow said, “We have a wealth of riches every year and it’s hard to have a balanced show and have everybody involved. Every year’s different. We can’t have a performance from every nominee. We have over 80 categories. And so we have to realize that we’ve got to create something that has balance and so on and so forth, and what you saw was our best judgment on how to do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Lorde, she seemed to address the controversy when she tweeted Monday morning, “If you’re debating whether or not I can murder a stage… come see it for urself.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Mark bought a guitar but couldn’t play it. I was already singing in another band, so the first lineup of The Fall was me singing and Mark playing guitar. It quickly switched because Mark was writing these mad, well-observed lyrics. Our early stuff sounded American, but Mark picked up on how to make Manchester interesting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manchester occupies a legendary place in music lore; a huge number of bands were spawned within the city’s grim industrial confines during that era. The scene surrounding Joy Division and Factory Records captured the public’s imagination, but it was The Fall who held the crown as the strangest and most singular band to have ever come out of Manchester. The group’s debut album, 1979’s \u003cem>Live at the Witch Trials\u003c/em>, proved it to already be well on its way to developing a signature sound: a churning, propulsive rhythm section, an emphasis on extreme, almost trancelike repetition and pointed, cryptic lyrics that Smith scowled with a voice that sometimes sounded like he was gargling razorblades. With each successive album, The Fall honed its technique, with Smith reveling in all ideas that ran counter to social norms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Fall’s work — particularly in their period between 1980-1982 — is steeped in references to the grotesque and the weird,” wrote the late critic Mark Fisher in his book \u003cem>The Weird and the Eerie\u003c/em>. The group’s methodology at this time is vividly captured in the cover image for the 1980 single, “City Hobgoblins,” in which we see an urban scene invaded by “’emigres from old green glades’: a leering, malevolent cobold looms over a dilapidated tenement …. A group like The Fall — working class and experimental, popular and modernist — could not and should not exist, and The Fall are remarkable for the way in which they draw out a cultural politics of the weird and the grotesque.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Fall proudly showed off that flair for the bizarre and monstrous, titling its 1980 album \u003cem>Grotesque (After the Gramme.)\u003c/em> By this time, the original founding members of The Fall — Bramah on guitar, Tony Friel on bass, Karl Burns on drums, Una Baines on keyboards and Smith on vocals — had dissolved, leaving Smith as the sole original member. It was a theme that would continue apace throughout Smith’s long career in The Fall — the members of the group shifted constantly and erratically from album to album, or even from month to month, with Smith as the only constant presence. Nearly 70 people have been members of The Fall over the course of the past four decades — an eye-popping number. “If it’s me and your granny on bongos, it’s The Fall,” Smith once famously quipped — less a joke than a statement of fact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3upVG_Bj3A\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith’s group garnered many prominent fans — the legendary British DJ John Peel was a constant champion — but The Fall never quite hit the mainstream in the United States. In the 1980s, Smith’s marriage and creative partnership with Brix Smith (now Brix Smith Start) helped lead to some of the catchiest, most upbeat music of their career — most notably on 1985’s \u003cem>This Nation’s Saving Grace\u003c/em> — but the band remained oblique and abstruse, even in its poppiest days. “He never once compromised,” Brix Smith Start wrote of Smith in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/Brixsmithstart/status/956481944547725312\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a statement\u003c/a> released after his death, “how many others can leave this live with such a singularity of vision?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mark E. Smith led The Fall through over 30 studio albums, along with a flood of EPs, singles, and collaborations, amounting to dizzying discography that could bewilder even the most die-hard record collector. Some of these records were absurdly brilliant — like \u003cem>Hex Enduction Hour\u003c/em> (1982) and \u003cem>The Wonderful and Frightening World Of…\u003c/em> (1984); others were a mixed bag, and a few were absolute failures. The same could be said for The Fall’s live performances, which could be as transcendent as they were unhinged.

And while many bands were inspired by The Fall — Pavement, Sonic Youth and the Pixies among them — no one sounded exactly like the group. Without Smith, there can be no Fall, and the wonderful and frightening world of music he ferociously hurled forth is now a bit less wonderful and frightening as a result. “When I’m dead and gone / my vibrations will live on / In vibes on vinyl through the years,” he howled on the song “Psykick Dancehall,” released in 1979.
