From Michael Nissen:
I just
found this on the "Recoil"
homepage, where Alan Wilder (former Depeche Mode)
answers questions from fans of Recoil. I am myself not
really fan of Depeche Mode or Recoil, but a friend of mine
told me of Alan Wilder's comments on Morrissey. These are
listed below.
Q+A's:
Have you ever met Morrissey and if so what do you think
of him?
- I've never met him but I'm a great admirer of his
words. His music's not adventurous enough though.
Do you not feel that if Moz [Morrisey] was more
'musically adventurous' it would perhaps detract from the
lyrics for which is he esteemed?
- No, on the contrary, it would enhance them.
My question is about Morrissey. Have you had a chance to
pick up his new album 'My Early Burglary Years', a B-side +
rarity collection? If so, what do you think of it? And
secondly, and more importantly, is Moz on your list of
possible vocalists for the next Recoil album?
- No, I haven't heard it. I haven't actually seen it -
is it out yet? I do like Morrissey's voice and I think he
would suit Recoil. What do you think?
Have you ever seen Morrissey live?
- No.
