His second solo album continues the acoustic guitar sound - almost no electronica yet - but there are lots of interesting odd musical touches. A consistent collection of songs with lots of interesting songwriting including Murderers the Hope of Women, and What Will Death Be Like? which repeats a structural concept with many clever one-liners similar to Nick Cave's Babe, I'm on Fire. Also Eleven Executioners, and Sex With the Disabled about a terrible equipment accident in a public gym that brings an odd couple together.
