New single by Morrissey in March

Music: Morrissey, former singer of The Smiths, will release the first single from his coming album on the 22nd of March. The last album Maladjusted came in 2000 and according to the distributor Showtime Morrissey was finished in the studio right before christmas. One of the artists fanpages reveals that twentyone new songs have been recorded to be released in April and that the album will be called You are the Quarry. In 2002 Morrissey toured with new songs, but was then without a recordcompany. Last year Morrissey signed a new recorddeal with Sanctuary Records. From April a part of the Sanctuary catalogus will be distributed by BMG and it is still not clear if this will have any effect on the Swedish releasedate.

    Well, yes, it seems logical that the good folks at Göteborgs-Posten would be the first in the know.

    Ahem.

          With Göteborgs-Posten being my local newspaper I just had to run down to the kiosk on the corner to pick it up.

          This is what it says in my translation, which I think should be quite ok:

          Well...a small error with the facts, but if this is true I'll forgive them for that.

            I always trust a source when it gets the release date of the last album wrong by three years.

            Wait for the official Sancturary announcement ... the album isn't even finished.
