I'm new around this forum, and I can't help but noticing that folk seem to be losing patience with Moz these days. I look back with nostalgia at when YATQ and even World Peace was released, and the general sentiment of the site seemed to be positive. I just wondered if anyone could enlighten me as to why this 'hateful crèche' is being, well, hateful?
The way I see it, now is the best time to be a Morrissey fan- the last four albums have been, on the whole, triumphs (OK, not so much Ringleader, but hey- that had Morricone on it!) and he still doesn't run the risk of being 'samey' with Gustavo adding a whole new songwriting dimension.
And the whole stuff about no record label or whatever? Really? I think he just wants a bit of time in between releases so the idea of a new Moz album isn't devalued like what happened with Southpaw, Maladjusted, etc. I think Staircase, Istanbul and Earth Is are among his best works ever, and there are loads of great tracks on YoR, too.
