    Throwing in references to various Farrow and Ball paint colours, Asos, estate agents, and thoroughly unsavoury characters such as Heroin Stan (stabbed his mam), this is middle-aged angst set to music. Both World of Twist and Earl Brutus have a classic album to their name, and now, so do The Pre New.

    This is a big, mature record.

    Across the album, lyrics leap suddenly out like car lights in a dark tunnel, illuminating unpalatable truths with the sarcasm on full beam.

    The Male Eunuch is variously angry, moving, disturbing and extremely funny.

    The rough-and-ready songwriting is all part of the conceptual high-jinks. [Jul 2015, p.81]
