''This Leaden Pall'' is the fifth album by UK rock band Half Man Half Biscuit, released in 1993. The album cover features a bleak overdeveloped picture of the now demolished Hale Wood pub in Halewood, Merseyside. In 2001 it was voted the 93rd best LP sleeve of all time in ''Q'' magazine. Anecdotally, lead singer Nigel Blackwell has referred to the album as their ''Closer''. At the time of its release, ''NME'' writer Johnny Cigarettes gave the album a 6/10 review, describing "Running Order Squabble Fest" as "a mini-epic of Spinal Tap proportions" and Blackwell as "the only rival to Vic Reeves in making cultural ephemera unfeasibly funny".〔Cigarettes, Johnny (1993). "Half Man Half Biscuit - This Leaden Pall". ''NME''. 18 December 1993.〕 The same publication revisited the album in 1999, with John Robinson stating that it "understood just as much as ''OK Computer'' the bravery needed to accomplish modern living".〔Robinson, John (1999). "Respect Overdue! Half Man Half Biscuit - This Leaden Pall".
