Patrick Wolf to release double album

Dis' favourite multi-instrumentalist Patrick Wolf has revealed his plans to release a double album, suggesting that we "think, smashing pumpkins, kate bush, I'm going double, double, trouble".

Taking time out from his cousin's wedding to make the post in his myspace blog, Wolf reveals that:

The album has been in my blood for a year and much more.... the label think it will be a disaster, im sure, as it comes more from the bottom of my heart than even lycanthropy, about my fathers cancer, my solitude, my true love, my irish roots, everything that has touched me to the core in the last year....

DiS hopes that the lupine one will be reprising some of the eccentric magic of his debut album and a little less of the faux-shine of The Magic Position, but it sounds like there will be something to please everyone (according to Wolf):

"One disk is heartbroken and in deep dispair [sic], one is in deep dark joy dedicated to my new love, my old and forever love, william the conqueror".
