There's an incredibly vitriolic attack on Morrissey in the new Word magazine. Quite bizarre given the Moz-friendly status of the magazine.
They've let long-term, Moz-hating journalist, David Quantocks (whose based his career largely on slagging off Morrissey) review Greatest Hits and it's one of the nastiest reviews you will ever have read. A massive slag off of Moz and, in particular, his band.
Quantocks is a deeply unpleasant fellow, always has been. Quite why Word want to sever their relations with Morrissey in this way is a little hard to fathom...
I've always been openly critical of Moz when I think he's releasing substandard songs (That's How People Grow Up is, in my opinion, one of his worst ever singles) and Word has been my favourite music mag for a long time but I certainly won't be buying this issue and will think long and hard about buying future ones. Even tempted to email the editor... (http://www.wordmagazine.co.uk/contact)
