The Presets have been one of the biggest indie bands for the past few years in Australia, touring with and supporting many well known bands such as Daft Punk, 2 Many DJ's and Ladytron. Their first LP Blow up combines electro, rock, techno, pop and a handful of other genres together in a seamless manner. Their second album, Apocalypso, was released on 12 April 2008. The album was a commercial and critical success, winning the ARIA Awards for "Best Dance Release" and "Album of the Year" that year.
Fall
The Presets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y'know I need you next to me
Eyes across the room can feel so far away
All desires I feel, I don't have the words to say
Baby, when you're near, you get me close to it
In your arms I'll fall
All the way to hell
In those arms I found my love
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Fall, all the way down
Like two soft bodies
In this hell we found our heaven
Oh oh oh oh
Darling it was on a night like this
I remember we first touched
Fearless in the face of all hostilities
And on this runaway train, only need you next to me
Speeding as we watch them fade to history
In your arms I'll - fall - all the way to hell
Like two soft bodies
Cause in those arms, I found my love
Oh oh oh oh
Fall, all the way down
Like two soft bodies
In this hell we found our heaven
Oh oh oh oh
All, all the way to hell
Like two soft bodies
In this hell we found our heaven, heaven, heaven in it
(All the) (All the)
Oh oh oh oh
Let's fall, all the way to hell
Like two soft bodies
In your arms I found my love
Oh oh oh oh
We fall, all the way down
Like two soft bodies
In this hell we found our heaven, heaven, heaven
The song Fall by The Presets is a romantic and intense track that explores the feeling of being in love and the incredible connection two people can have. The lyrics describe how being close to a lover is essential, and how even when they're not speaking, they can still sense each other's desires. It's about being fearless in the face of adversity, and how, even in the worst of times, the love between two people can be the most beautiful thing in the world.
The chorus of the song, "In your arms, I'll fall all the way to hell," is particularly striking, as it suggests that the love between two people can be so strong that it can overcome even the most challenging obstacles. The use of the word "hell" in this context is an interesting choice, as it implies that the journey to love can be difficult or even painful, but ultimately worth it.
The second verse is particularly powerful, as it describes a moment when the two people first touched and how they were "fearless in the face of all hostilities." This line suggests that they were able to overcome any obstacles to be together, and that their love is so strong that nothing can stand in their way.
Overall, Fall by The Presets is a deeply emotional and intense song that explores the power of love and the incredible connection two people can share. The lyrics are poetic and beautifully rendered, making this a standout track on the album.

I feel so sad that they aren't at all recognised in the U.K. but it gives me real satisfaction to introduce them to people :)

Having tried to form an 'Underground Band' for years, I think these guys are way ahead of the game. I reckon only those in the know with a really good taste in music appreciate the Greatness of the Presets!
