First 5 songs are really strong, especially My Love and Home.

It all gets a bit Churchillian legs-clumsy at times after track 5, but it may yet grow on me.

Uncle Skins is so angry, it really makes me chuckle reading his diatribes. He acts like an abused wife in a loveless marriage, that remains attached out of some hankering nostalgic ache.

I get goosebumps imaging his crinklecut forehead furrowing into different planetary star alignments as Morrissey's incendiary music jives and caterwauls through his bedsit.

I Bury the Living is bloody madcap... I think I really like it? But its like a weird fever dream

It seems to be his only way to be interesting here, sad

Pretty sure its been covered, but so many here seem to have some sort of personal grudge against Morrissey. I would not be surprised at all if its not just word coming down from Mount David to be like this considering their past. The thing is, Morrissey should not be above criticism, he should cop it fairly. But when all you do is criticise every single thing all the time then it sort of loses its effect. Your words lose any gravitas and you just sound like the rambling guy on a street corner yelling incoherently about something and become part of the furniture - as opposed to someone with legit criticism who can be balanced where your views might actually carry some weight. The good news is you can put people like that on ignore and it makes the board much better. The bad news is, for that very same reason, they refuse to turn anonymous posting off because then you can't pick and choose who to ignore. Its either all anonymous, or no anonymous, and they want their anti-Morrissey message spread. Which is just f***ing bizarre when it comes from people in charge of the site. Like, move on and do more positive things.

Speaking of which, spent entirely too much time on that and not the music!

A chacun son gout. It's full of mono-speed clunkers, with ill-thought out cod-political doggerel. It's awful.

On the plus side, his voice sounds good, but that's it. Its dreadful.

P.S. vote it down all you like, I'll keep reposting my views, and you're gonna have to keep doing it. How DARE anyone have a differing view.

 

[Thewlis]

Can you elaborate on certain songs maybe, Uncle?
It seems like you haven’t heard the damned thing...
And Yes, posting the same very weak post 3 times in an hour is really low, even by your standards.

If I want to act, as 'a kid', as you say, then I bloody well will do, and there's nothing you or anyone else can do about it.

And I will scream,swear and stomp my little feet.
I will not listen to others , I know best.

Jeez!

Can we have that a fourth time,si vous plait ?

 

[ExpectingToFly]

Very first impressions (so liable to change on a few more listens, of course!)

The standouts for me are My Love, I'd Do Anything For You, Home Is A Question Mark, and Israel. They sound great. I already liked I Wish You Lonely, not so much the other two singles. I Bury the Living sounds nuts. Need to revisit that a few times to make my mind up about that one...I liked the 'the war goes on without our John' bit though.

All the Young People Must Fall in Love sounds terrible. What have they done to it? I really like it live. Sounds like they couldn't be arsed recording that one. I general, I feel the production has really let this album down. It all sounds a bit 'dead' and soulless to me. But it's not helped by quite an abundance of skippable songs either. Unless it's a grower, I think this has become my least favourite Moz album. I'm hoping my opinion changes on a few more listens.

His voice sounds better than ever, though.

Home is a Q is just class

Israel is probably his worst, terrible.

Joe make a terrible work as producer and mixer.
Looks like he doesn't know Morrissey's sound.

Would this not be a good time to get a job moderating a site for a musician you still enjoy?

I'm here to stay. To wait for some turnaround in material, a turnaround in attitude to immigrants, a turnaround to the old days of the man I admired. I'm here for the long term.

 

[Shyness 1s nice]

Listening to Who Will Protect Us From the Police? now

 

[Shyness 1s nice]

Just listened to Israel. I felt like I was waiting for a big chorus or something? If you know what I mean?

 

[Shyness 1s nice]

Home is a question mark - just as lovely as when performed live
