Immaculately-coiffed, London-based, glam-dance anti-hero Patrick Wolf's fourth album picks right up where 2007's MAGIC POSITION left off, albeit with a darker palette of colors to paint from. Wolf's penchant for brooding, British-folk melodies pasted into a nightmarish cradle of apocalyptic, techno-chicanery has never been more controlled than on the BACHELOR. Wolf has often stated that he has no allegiance to styles when it comes to recording, but the BACHELOR feels most alive when it's wallowing in it's own dusky ruin.
