I love how Morrissey never played the game with the music press and knew there would be a backlash. They mostly champion their mates who get a free ride for years (Blur, Oasis, Elbow,The Manics). They can't turn 'round and then say "Oh were wrong about so and so".
I would face torture rather than admit Damon Albarn was nothing but a pseud and The Manics were tuneless dullards.
I guess I'm showing my age and the younger bands are all being treated the same. I actually inadvertently heard The 1975 perform an acoustic set on YouTube and they weren't diabolical. I only heard 2 songs and they do have the stench of the Private School about them.
Morrissey never kowtowed to the press and they never forgave him.
