Another new album, another new hair color! Follow flamboyant, now-ruddy-maned Patrick Wolf around some flashy subterranean club to the tune of his new single, "Accident & Emergency", due out October 23 in the UK via Loog. Solid enough tune about getting that dirt off your shoulder, but man, those vocals. PJ Harvey pal Maria Mochnacz directed the slick piece.


If that's just not enough P. Wizzolf for ya, our young romantic also has a video podcast, which iTunes users can view by clicking here. The 'cast includes an interview and footage of Wolf performing new song "Bluebells" live in his home. Dude's latest, The Magic Position, hits stores early next year via Loog.

And did you know Wolf has a musically-inclined sister? Her name's Jo Apps, she plays in his live band, and she just released a single this week on Planet Mu. Dark, looping, ambient stuff-- very nice. Best of all, her MySpace features a backdrop from superlative Super Nintendo game Earthbound, quite possibly thee kewlest thing I've seen on the interweb all week.
