90 Bisodol (Crimond) is the twelfth studio album by UK rock band Half Man Half Biscuit. It was released on 26 September 2011 by Probe Plus.[3]

The inner sleeve includes a modified version of the painting Christ's Entry into Jerusalem by William Gale (1823–1909),[4] in which one onlooker holds a sign with the words "Dirk Hofman Motorhomes". This is a reference to a man who holds such a sign at the finish of European cycling races.[citation needed]

Critical reception

[edit]

In a review for BBC, critic reviewer Luke Slater called the album the band's "most consistently brilliant work yet in every aspect, and another start-to-finish showcase of rare genius".[5] The Quietus called it "probably their best, certainly their most consistent album".[6]
