New Facts Emerge is the 31st and final studio album by English band The Fall, released on 28 July 2017 by Cherry Red Records.

This is the only album since Are You Are Missing Winner not to feature keyboardist Eleni Poulou, who quit The Fall the previous year after separating from Mark E. Smith, reducing the band to a quartet.

The title of the song "Victoria Train Station Massacre" caused controversy, as the album announcement came just a week after the Ariana Grande concert bombing, which occurred in a foyer connecting Manchester Arena to Manchester Victoria railway station. Representative for the band confirmed that the track's title was an unfortunate coincidence, and there was artwork sent off for manufacture "long before the terrible events in Manchester".
