Pick of the week: London: Pop & rock

London: The Fall | Lambchop | Fleet Foxes

The Fall
Hackney Empire, E8, Saturday 1
Mark E Smith rounds off an active year — a new Fall LP, Imperial Wax Solvent; his ghosted autobiography — with a brace of gigs from his occasionally disciplined group.

Lambchop
Union Chapel, N1, Monday, Tuesday 4
Kurt Wagner's traditionally hushed voice is the linchpin of this Nashville Americana band, now in a timely return to form with new album OH (Ohio).

Fleet Foxes
Shepherd's Bush Empire, W12, Wednesday 5
Nice harmony singing is the cornerstone of this Seattle band, much tipped in 2008. Occasionally medieval country rock from the heirs to My Morning Jacket.
