Patrick Wolf
looks like he’d give
Julian Cope
a run for his money in the fried fashion stakes. The sleeve of this, the third single from his album
The Bachelor
, has him looking like an acid casualty from
Highlander
. Musically, there’s more than a whiff of the glens, too, with a light Gothic overtone, like a postcard from Whitby. The aim is apparently for a modern take on an English
Romeo and Juliet
story but it’s more
Wuthering Heights
. It’s mostly a success, too, although I was expecting more darkness, drama and histrionics. Perhaps Mr. Wolf needs to spend more time in the studio and a bit less in the dressing-up box.
