“30 Degrees” was co-written by the late Smith and bandmates Simon Archer and Ed Blaney in Salford, England. The album gathers nine tracks total, and marks the group’s first full-length release since 2017’s New Facts Emerge . They also released a box set of live performances in 2018, and a live album in 2021. A book on the band, Excavate! The Wonderful and Frightening World of the Fall , came out the same year.
