Few bands of the last 40 years have been as influential to indie rock, punk and alternative as The Fall, so it is not surprise to see the outpouring of tributes following the very sad death of main man Mark E. Smith...
We're all heartbroken at the news about Tom Petty. Tributes have been pouring in on social media from fellow musicians and other artists including ones from St. Vincent, Neko Case, Cameron Crowe, Chuck D, Ryan Adams, Sharon Van Etten...

The album features appearances by Josh Homme, Greg Dulli, and Duke Garwood.
