    Fantastic album - the music stylistically is similar to that of his previous album, the tunes are catchy the lyrics are standard luke haines (which is a good thing). I highly recommend this album.

    Its low-budget weirdness will have you laughing into the new year.

    Some spoken-word sections aside, the music on Nine and a Half Psychedelic Meditations on British Wrestling of the 1970s and Early 80s doesn't shift too far from the kind of vaguely diseased-sounding ballad Haines mastered long ago with the Auteurs, but there's a definite shift in emotional temperature.
