YOR review in The Daily Mail

4 out of 5.

The gladioli-waving bedsit poet of old has transformed himself into a brawny rock statesman on recent albums, and Years Of Refusal continues the process. Morrissey's latest backing band imbue some darkly humorous songs with a little too much bluster, but his old deftness resurfaces on I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris. The melodramatic You Were Good In Your Time finds him returning to a favourite theme - that of the fading star. But an enduring talent suggests that the former Smith will be with us for a while yet.
