Originally intending to release 1990's ''[[Bona Drag]]'' as his follow-up to ''[[Viva Hate]]'', Morrissey eventually decided to make the former album a compilation following the departure of co-writer and producer [[Stephen Street]] after a royalties dispute.

====Re-Release====
On 8 April 2013, a newly remastered special edition of ''Kill Uncle'' was released. The original version of "[[There's A Place In Hell For Me And My Friends]]" was replaced with the version from ''[[At KROQ]]'', and "[[Pashernate Love]]" and "[[East West]]" were added as extra tracks. The running order was also slightly rearranged. The album artwork was completely redesigned, with a partially colorized Kevin Cummins photo.
