New Morrissey Album

Ringleader of the Tormentors

Ugh. At least it isn't of the Tormented because that would be far too expected. Discuss any expectations you have for the album, how much you hate Morrissey, whatever.

I'm not hoping for much, besides the Your Arsenal/Vauxhall and I pairing he's never released two good albums back to back. Not that Quarry was phenomenal, but still. At least we should get another tour which is good enough, now that he's started playing Smiths songs again.

Tony Visconti is producing, which is a huge nod to Moz's idols consider he produced most of the best glam records out there (Ziggy Stardust..., Electric Warrior, Low and plenty more).

Due out in early 2006, so next year will be great for Morrissey/Smiths fans (Smiths boxset is also due out, along with another crappy compilation).

So discuss I guess.

Is the album along the same lines as late Smith's works and well his...em latest solo work?

***morrissey*** · 10-03-2005, 08:16 PM

I haven't heard it, obviously.

But I'll assume so, ie: you'll hate it.

I remember You Are The Quarry had that song First Of The Gang To Die. That was a pretty cool song, I guess.

Oh I was under the impression you didn't.

But I can't ever imagine him returning to that sound, not with this set of collaborators.

He needs to do something like Eno/Byrne, something with a little more bite.

If he did something with either of those guys, mass pants creaming would ensue.

I don't think he has it in him. If he gave 150%, it would be phenomenal. But he's been coasting for 15 years and I don't think even a collaboration with geniuses like them would help.

edit: I would like to see a Marr reunion someday before they both lose what little energy they have left.

RollerQueen · 10-03-2005, 09:38 PM

Didn't Pitchfork or some other place report that this album will be his most all-out rock album to date? In any case, I can't wait to see if he does well now that he's back in the spotlight again.

Coincidentally, I listened to Live at Earl's Court on the way to classes this morning.

***morrissey*** · 10-03-2005, 09:54 PM

Yeah that's what I read on pitchfork but I doubt they've even heard a song yet.

Perhaps you're right.

I thought Vauxhall & I was crap. I always take an interest in Morrissey though, so I'll inspect this when it arrives.

Interstate · 10-04-2005, 09:15 AM

I thought You Are The Quarry was pretty good so I'm looking forward to the new album.

***morrissey*** · 11-16-2005, 12:41 AM

Tracklisting, apparently:

Quote:

1. "I Will See You In Far-off Places"
2. "Dear God Please Help Me"
3. "You Have Killed Me"
4. "The Youngest Was The Most Loved"
5. "In The Future When All's Well"
6. "The Father Who Must Be Killed"
7. "Life Is A Pigsty"
8. "I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now"
9. "On The Streets I Ran"
10. "To Me You Are A Work Of Art"
11. "I Just Want To See The Boy Happy"

Oh well, atleast you won't be let down.

theredwonder · 11-16-2005, 06:28 AM

I'd be excited but i dislike most of his solo work. Also those track names are horrible. Horrible.

*Dave de Sylvia* · 11-16-2005, 06:53 AM

Morrissey in sub-five-word Song Title Shocker.

Aeaon · 11-16-2005, 02:53 PM

Hmm, I had no idea he was doing another solo album. Though his last one was great.

Axe · 11-16-2005, 04:22 PM
