So today brings us another new album from the Mozzer. Anyone check it out yet? I just finished the first listen through and so far it sounds like it’ll fit in nicely with the stuff from You Are The Quarry, which is to say that aside from a couple standouts I’m finding it somewhat unremarkable. A little better than Quarry though thus far.
The best track for me is easily You Have Killed Me, which is a classic Morrissey-sounding track (nice and self-hating).
Others that sound good at first listen include In The Future When All Is Well, At Last I Am Born, and To Me You Are A Work Of Art.
While we’re on the topic - what’s your favorite Morrissey album? I think I’d have to say mine is Maladjusted, but Vauxhall and I is up there too. Heck, I’ll just rank 'em all:
[ol][li]Maladjusted (1997)[/li][li]Vauxhall and I (1994)[/li][li]Viva Hate (1988)[/li][li]Your Arsenal (1992)[/li][li]Kill Uncle (1991)[/li][li]Ringleader of the Tormentors? (2006)[/li][li]You Are The Quarry (2004)[/li][li]Southpaw Grammar (1995)[/li][/ol]
Low on the list at the moment, but that doesn’t mean I won’t enjoy it. Except maybe *The Youngest Was The Most Loved" which has a ghastly children’s chorus in the background and Morrissey yodeling at the end of the song. Yeegads. Feels like my earbuds are humping my ears.
Any other Morrissey fans out there? And Canada haters maybe?
