“It’s like pushing an iron elephant up a hill,” Dominic Butler said in a self-titled cover story at the tail end of 2011, referring to the painstaking recording process of Factory Floor. “You have to freeze this oil on water and make it static…We’re not writing the music and then all playing it; we’re molding it as we go, tearing bits off and putting new things on.”
That much is clear on “Fall Back” (due out January 15th through DFA), yet another Factory Floor 12” that’s primed to set discerning dancefloors on fire…and make us wish the groove-locked trio would put out an album already.
