I've said it before and I'll say it again--Ed Buller.
Producer of albums you may have heard of such as Pulp's "His & Hers," Suede's first three LPs, and Slowdive's "Souvlaki"--to name a few.
Morrissey's heading in that slower, atmospheric direction anyway--might as well go with an underdog with something to gain (as opposed to a hack mall-rock producer.)
