I remember an interview when "Meat is Murder" came out, where he admitted a love of bacon sarnies back in his younger carnivorous days.

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

It will probably be loads better than the songs he writes himself nowadays.

he's been using autotune a shitload on his recent stuff

OTM. Worst thing I've heard in years was Morrisey's horrible live cover of the NY Dolls "Human Being". Morrisey casts himself as the outcast when he's naturally the bully, and it seemed like the band had no idea how the song goes.
― everything, Thursday, 6 December 2018 19:11 (five years ago) link
his band is basically boz and a bunch of LA session dudes
― The Poppy Bush AutoZone (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 6 December 2018 19:13 (five years ago) link
oh I'm totally forgetting he changed his band ten years ago. thinking of the alain white, you are the quarry era band and how leaden they were
― ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 6 December 2018 19:17 (five years ago) link
like really prosaic pop-punk played slowly with a crooner on top
Last time I saw anyone directly Moz-associated (other than Mr. Marr earlier this year, natch) was Alain Whyte's band in the mid-2000s -- nice performance and did a very good version of what was probably Morrissey's last great B-side, "The Edges Are No Longer Parallel."
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 6 December 2018 19:19 (five years ago) link
Boz got demoted from bandleader to session dude shortlyish after Jesse Tobias came on board aiui
just looked up the current band and the bassist was previously in the long-running '00s Breeders lineup
― sans lep (sic), Thursday, 6 December 2018 20:23 (five years ago) link
The band's got better, but Moz is worse (apart from being a fascist I mean - he's got better at that). His singing is strong but unbearably hammy nowadays. You see this list of songs and you can hear them coming out of that mouth already. Not appealing to me.

on his last few records, his voice is being electronically treated somehow in a way i find disconcerting.
― affects breves telnet (Gummy Gummy), Thursday, 28 February 2019 04:44 (five years ago) link
Yeah this does sound autotuned or whatnot
― ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 28 February 2019 05:45 (five years ago) link
it's one of those things that drives me crazy when other people don't notice it. they're like, "no, his voice sounds fine" when it's obviously (to me) being manipulated in little ways that play with the grain of it. same w/ some of those late merle haggard records -- almost nobody else (that i can find) seems to recognize how much his voice was being treated.
― affects breves telnet (Gummy Gummy), Thursday, 28 February 2019 06:10 (five years ago) link
About as worthwhile as his recent version of I Never Promised You A Rose Garden.
― fetter, Thursday, 28 February 2019 08:17 (five years ago) link
Really can't stand his voice nowadays.
― Eyeball Kicks, Thursday, 28 February 2019 10:02 (five years ago) link
i kind of liked this. not enough to buy this album but it was better than I expected it to be. I still like to pretend he died right after Vauxhall and I.

The protesters had two signs, one which said: “Bigmouth Indeed” and the other which seemed to have some sort of ‘cancelled’ trident, both one would imagine meant for protesting against Moz’s recent spate of far-right rhetoric which has seen him divide his fans while supporting political party For Britain.
pity the article was written by absolute morons. one would imagine that, yes, since the trident is the symbol of For Britain you morons
