Comedy? Yes. Novelty? Well, not really - it's the second album after all. Any good? Well, no, as it happens.

TLH tunes are generally annoying, gimmicky and pointless with such pained titles as 'He's turned Emo' and 'Chav'. What would have been an ideal basis for a charity Christmas record should never have been allowed to evolve in to the non-comedy act that it has. I appreciate that this is just an act, and the whole thing is meant to be taken lightly, but I can't help but feel music like this is killing credible song-writing.

Listen for yourself. Just don't discuss it with me.
