Neil Hannon, aka The Divine Comedy, doesn’t seem to like modern pop music much. In fact, he has described it as “rancid”.
The Northern Irish musician has a new album out this week – the 13th under the Divine Comedy banner – with the evocative title of Rainy Sunday Afternoons. And in an interview with Rolling Stone in which he talked about the record, writing film music and his work on sitcom Father Ted back in the 1990s, conversation got around to whether he sees himself in any young songwriters.
