Mark E. Smith (born March 5, 1957) is the lead singer, lyricist and hub of The Fall, a renowned and idiosyncratic offshoot from the UK post-punk/new wave music scenes.
The Fall have continued for over twenty-five years to produce unpredictable and challenging music, varying richly in both character and quality, with the abrasive lyrics and half-droned, half-ranted vocals of frontman Mark E. Smith providing the one constant note through a bewildering succession of personnel changes.
As well as his work with The Fall, Smith has released the spoken-word albums The Post-Nearly Man and Pander! Panda! Panzer!. He has supplied guest vocals for the Inspiral Carpets, Elastica Long Fin Killie and others.
Smith was married Californian guitarist Brix Smith on 19 July 1983.
