Napoleon XIV Albums

What The Critics Say

The hit single, plus more atonal odes to madness varying the bedrock elements of minimal percussion and speeded-up chant/vocals. "Marching Off to Bedlam," "Let's Cuddle Up in My Security Blanket, " "Dr. Psyche, the Cut-Rate Head-Shrinker, " "I'm Happy They Took You Away, Ha-Haaa!" (the last credited to Josephine XV)--all are much more amusing to read as titles than to actually sit through. All of the material is available on the Rhino CD reissue The Second Coming. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide
