    TTY: Universal Music, the approach made to David Joseph, since denied by David Joseph

    If Morrissey is so concerned why doesn't he do a free concert in Paris and have his band wear "f*** ISIS" tee shirts? It's a rhetorical question as we all know the answer.

    Morrissey: criticisms of debut novel are 'an attack against me' - The Guardian

    You can't have a novel published solely based on who you are and then turn around and cry when critics bash not only your work but you in general. If that manuscript landed on someone at Penguins desk without Morrissey's name on the title page it would have been rejected with extreme prejudice...

    "List of the Lost" review by Ed Cumming in The Observer

    I do believe Penguin were in a tough spot... apparently there was some bidding/negotiating to release Autobiography. Maybe, in their desperation to get Autobiography, they inked a deal to buy/publish his debut novel as well? Seems reasonable to guess that's what happened and it's probably...

    "List of the Lost" physical copy picture posted by @ariel_mcdowall / Twitter

    Autobiography... World Peace is None of Your business... List of the Lost... do you remember that feeling you had as a kid when you found out Santa Claus wasn't real? - - - Updated - - - but not much more.

    TTY statement: Hammersmith last ever UK gigs?!

    I've been saying the same thing for a few years now and still agree 100%... only stumbling block might be their personalities. They'd either become best buds or hate each others guts as they both seem somewhat twat-ish (this is coming from someone who's a fan of both!) But Jack White produced...

    Compilation of Songs by The Smiths Reimagined as 8-Bit Arcade Music - Laughing Squid

    These Smiths songs in 8-bit sound better than the electronic gimmicks on World Peace is None of Your Business.

    Alain Whyte reminisces about "Southpaw Grammar" on Facebook, released 20 years ago (Aug. 28, 1995)

    I divorced my first wife because of Southpaw Grammar. Well, not only because of Southpaw Grammar but that was the straw that broke the camel's back. The day it was released was a special day- I was still high from Vauxhall. The one thing I asked of her was to allow me an hour to myself that...

    Alain Whyte reminisces about "Southpaw Grammar" on Facebook, released 20 years ago (Aug. 28, 1995)

    Re: Alain Whyte reminisces about Southpaw Grammar, released 20 years ago today Jack White. He'd be a great shock to the system while not gutting what makes Morrissey Morrissey. He has a history, as a producer, of taking former greats and giving us one last bit of brilliance (Loretta Lynn...

    What's on your perfect Morrissey mix CD?

    So, limited to one 80 minute CD, what songs are on your perfect Morrissey mix CD? Solo Moz only but they can be any combination of album tracks, singles, or B sides (songs that were properly released and available to the general public for purchase at some point.) Not necessarily a mix you...

    World Peace Is None Of Your Business: 1 year later

    I actually considered taking Bona Drag out of my comment because I didn't really want it to sound like I meant Swords was as powerful as Bona Drag. I, more or less, agree with your comment :)

    World Peace Is None Of Your Business: 1 year later

    Uneven but good overall. Certainly worthy of a follow-up as I'd love to see how this musical phase evolves. To me his last few albums work more as collections of songs and less as albums with coherent running statements/themes. That's fine of course but when I listen to an album like Vauxhall...

    "Rubber Rings: Johnny Marr's Favourite Albums" - The Quietus

    Everyone who frequents this site should thank God for Johnny Marr. You know Morrissey's Baker's Dozen would be littered with mostly un-listenable Jobriath and New York Dolls albums. If not for Johnny's musical acumen Morrissey, most likely (in my opinion), would not have ever had a career in...

    Please, please, please don’t let the Smiths reunite - Salon

    I'm doubtful The Smiths (proper) will ever reunite but I'd love to see Morrissey and Marr collaborate again. I think that's a much more realistic possibility. I don't think it'll happen though and it all boils down to Morrissey's attitude. He's like a jilted ex-lover. Marr seems more...

    Smiths will reform

    Also, I love Boz, I really do... but it's like Morrissey has been sitting at the kid's table for 20+ years now. I'm not sure he could keep up with Johnny on stage at this point. Best to record at a pace that works for both of them and where glaring differences in abilities can be smoothed over...

    Smiths will reform

    I'd like to see Moz and Johnny collaborate and record together again... I could care less if they perform live. Not to say Andy and Mike weren't a huge part of The Smiths (because they absolutely were- neither one of them more than the other) but the real magic, to me, was that songwriting...

    Tales of The Smiths graphic novel - video interview of creator

    I wasn't really too jazzed about this until I watched this interview... now I can't wait to pick it up. If this collection manages to convey even half of the thoughtfulness that Con expresses in this interview it's going to be great. I haven't followed the strips as they came out so this will...

    Ringleader

    I can't site specific production flaws but I will say if you make a Morrissey mix CD and include Pigsty you can hear just how lousy the production is on that particular song versus anything else you're likely to include... which is odd because the rest of the ROTT songs sound just fine in that...

    Morrissey interview in Nedeljnik (Serbian), Dec. 4, 2014 issue

    I try not to be a hater but isn't it kind of sad that we're reduced to getting excited about really short interviews in foreign magazines (or worse- hotel adverts) that report nothing new and reuse old photos? I mean when you look back on the heady days of NME spreads and frequent mentions in...
