"Continuing Cherry Red's extensive series of reissues and repackages of the Fall's back catalog, the label rounded up the group's 1982 output with this six-disc box set, including two studio albums (the gargantuan Hex Enduction Hour and the much more succinct Room to Live), and four CDs' worth of singles, Peel sessions, and live material, including the infamous Fall in a Hole. By 1982, the band had left Rough Trade due to dissatisfaction with the label's operations, instead signing with the fledgling Kamera Records ... There aren't any unearthed rarities included in the set, so Fall diehards will already have everything here, but it's ideal for casual fans looking to dig deeper into one of the group's most caustic, unpredictable periods".

"'Classic Line-up' Fall at arguably the peak of their powers ... The live discs are both an absolute joy and a bit of a chore - the sets were marathon, endurance-tests or value-for-money if you were an unwavering disciple ... It is a smartly packaged boxset and we will never see a band quite like the Fall again because basically nowadays there is no way an individual like Mark E Smith would ever get a foothold in the actual proper "Music Business" and get the consistent support of someone well-placed in a nationwide broadcasting corporation".
