I never liked that picture, but now it looks more cleaned up and refined.

I like the way the text is written.
Yes, much better.

Oh man, I freaking love it. I would buy the album just on the strength of that cover, even if I wasn't a Morrissey fan. Sounds like this album will be an all around good buy!

Nowadays he refers to the band as "us" and "we" (Score:2, Interesting)

For the last five years or so he has been talking of the band in terms of "WE are completely ready to make an album" and adressed the audience from stage with stuff like "we are what's left of Morrissey" and "hello, we are Morrissey" or "we... is... Morr-i-ssey".
Also I was under the impression that contractwise he goes as a package - WITH the band (and that was one of the reasons that it took them so long to land a new record deal).

The word 'you' doesn't have a capital 'Y'; but 'Quarry' has a capital 'Q'. Surely they won't allow that inconsistency to get by them?

I had a feeling a couple of months ago that the album was referring to a boxer named Jerry Quarry who was beaten up so many times that everyone urged him to retire. He eventually suffered from severe brain damage and died in 1999. Now I am more sure that it could be referring to him. The capitalized 'Q' would make more sense, that is for sure.

Almost seems to be saying that it is Morrissey that is the Quarry.

"Morrissey, you are the Quarry", as if he's being told that.

The Mozfather (Score:1)

I'm really enjoying this gangster persona. The whole suit-and-tie thing with the tommy gun is just so kick ass. Gangsters have always been interesting throughout culture, American culture especially, so to embody that idea on an album cover is classic.

I have a good feeling in my heart about this album; Morrissey seems to be in top form: he's happy and very proud of his work. That's exciting. I'm excited for him and the decisions he's been making recently. He's been doing some different things with his talent, and I think that's great. So what if this producer has worked with some crappy bands? That doesn't mean that Morrissey is lumped with them! We gotta give it a chance. Believe me, I'm not too crazy about The Cure's new producer, (yeah, I hear boos from the crowd. Oh well...) but going in a different direction sometimes is refreshing. Sometimes the same ol' same ol' gets a bit old. Granted, some things are classic and should never change -- Moz's hair style, for instance, is his trademark. Change is good; it further defines a person. Anyway, I've made my point. Moving along...

I'm looking forward to May!!! Woo!!! Bring out the kegs!!!
