Amazingly, Neil ... found himself writing lots of new songs for The Divine Comedy. The resulting 30 or so songs were whittled down to a more manageable sum and Victory For The Comic Muse, the new album emerged, so Neil says, more or less by accident. The album was recorded virtually live in the studio over a period of two weeks in late 2005. Modern recording techniques were set aside in favour of analogue tape and as few microphones as possible. This old school technique enabled Neil to capture the warmth of live performances and the freshness that can only come from doing something in just one or two takes. is a wonderful collection of stories and observations, set within a wide range of musical styles.
