Christian Fitness wrote an anthem for everyone sick of Morrissey's shit.

Brief article - so in full:

"Being a Morrissey fan has been difficult longer than it’s been fun at this point. It’s a relationship that only grows more complicated with every half-great new record and all-shitty new interview, and it’s one Andrew “Falco” Falkous captures as he goes “Full Morrissey” on the recent Nuance – The Musical. Working under his prolific Christian Fitness moniker, the former Mclusky/Future Of The Left agitator addresses the State of Moz 2018 with typically sneering wit (“I smell a half-finished record in need of edge, in need of outrage / Oh Steven, you are so very, very naughty”). But at the same time, he weaves in mockingly florid, Morrissey-esque turns of phrase that could only be written by someone with at least a little appreciation of the man’s output: “Every year around Christmas, since once I was anything / I have gone to a secret location there to confound sentence structure / And think about death.” All this unfolds over a hypnotically plodding beat and slashing guitars that are tense and needling for a bit, before the big, brassily symphonic swells of the chorus—nastiness giving way to a moment of beauty, like reading Morrissey talk about how Hitler was left-wing, then listening to “Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want.”

Not familiar with this person.
The music is not to my taste.

Mcklusky was a decent band. I tend to wonder when I hear these type songs of, why not write about people who actually do terrible things instead of those who just run there mouth
