Slates / A Part of America Therein, 1981

Slates and A Part of America Therein are two EPs by English post-punk band The Fall, released in 1981. They exemplify the band's abrasive, guitar-driven post-punk sound with terse, spoken-sung vocals and compact song forms, and mark a transitional phase in the group's output between their early recordings and later, more expansive work.
