the "reggae is vile" line is indeed from an NME year-end poll thing, a handful of "your favourite X of the year" type questions. there is a picture of it in one of the smiths books, i'm surprised it's not knocking around online somewhere. he has walked it back several times since. whatever his true opinions on reggae tho, he is still an incredible racist.

i read this the other day, it is v. good. archeology of a not-so-accidental racist.

xp Pretty sure the nazi schmuck who wrote the 'Skinhead' and 'Suedehead', 'Skinhead on the Moon' etc books never once mentions reggae, ska or bluebeat

as an aside, like.
"Morrissey will become a talent scout for the Attack label"
How did this work out?
Trojan records were great and all, but they did represent the era and the strategy of trying their damndest to appeal to international/white audiences, and my suspicions it's the conscious reggae that came after that Morrissey wrinkles his nose at.

The piece is also reprinted in Freaky Trigger, with more comments including someone finding the pop questionnaire with 'reggae is vile' - there's a link down the bottom of the Patreon link.

When you're in a hole, stop digging. Or if you're Morrissey, you give another bigoted interview supporting Anne Marie Waters.
I mean, look at the shocking treatment of Tommy Robinson...

My previous album World Peace Is None of Your Business was dropped after ten days of release because it was thought too political.

I can't eat anything that has any flavour. I've never had a curry, or coffee, or garlic.
This explains so much.

I've always found food to be very difficult because I only eat bread, potatoes, pasta and nuts... all stodge. I can't eat anything that has any flavour. I've never had a curry, or coffee, or garlic.
i feel like this explains a lot somehow

I love this quote.
simply became tired of the ridiculous BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN headlines ... my voice is very soft and quiet, in fact, and it doesn't strike again, or even strike at all.

so he eats pasta but he won't have any garlic? does he just put ketchup on it or something?

Yes! I love to travel now, and I feel very excited to be in Turkey, Poland, Finland, Israel, and so on. Whether they actually want me there is entirely another matter.
yeah, it must feel awful to be in another country and know that people don't want you there, right
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 11:56 (six years ago) link
What the fuck is wrong with him? That curry/garlic/coffee claim is so weird and not even accurate.
At the outset, Morrissey is drinking a cup of coffee, and during our discussion he occasionally elides his way out of anything remotely resembling an impasse by alluding to these eatables: 'This is such great coffee,' he pronounces at one point, and when I ask him what's on his mind he replies: 'This KitKat.'
He clearly doesn’t have anyone in his life who cares about him.

Morrissey has cancelled all of his UK & European shows in July - including two homecoming gigs at Manchester's Castlefield Bowl. Promoter says its due to "logistical circumstances beyond our control". Low ticket sales are thought to have played a part in this decision. pic.twitter.com/Gxc74HsmY9— Dave Haslam (@Mr_Dave_Haslam) June 29, 2018
