Morrissey
As the lead singer of the Smiths, arguably the most important indie band in Britain during the '80s, Morrissey's theatrical crooning and literate, poetic lyrics -- filled with romantic angst, social alienation, and cutting wit -- connected powerfully with a legion of similarly sensitive, disaffected youth. These fans turned The Smiths into stars in Britain, exerting tremendous pull over much of the country's guitar-based music for many years after their breakup, and even if the group remained underground cult artists in the States, they had a fanbase that slowly, stea...[more]

Morrissey bounced back from the lackluster Kill Uncle with the terrific Your Arsenal. A dynamic, invigorating fusion of glam rock and rockabilly, Your Arsenal rocks harder than any other record Morrissey ever made. Guitarist Alain Whyte's riffs swagger with a self-absorbed arrogance, and producer Mick Ronson gives the music a tough, stylish sheen -- it may be a break from Morrissey's jangle pop, but the music is sharper than at has been since the Smiths, and so is {$Morri [ read more ]

"You Are The Quarry," the first new solo material from Morrissey in seven years, is an album of original songs, using keyboards interwoven with crunchy guitars to create a lush, musical backdrop. From mandolin to flute to harp to moog keyboard, the album's richly textured musical layers see Morrissey exploring new musical territory. "There are no links to the past," says Morrissey. 'This is a much brighter sounding album than much of my previous work. We've turned the page with 'Quarry.' It's a dynamic albu [ read more ]

Morrissey's new opus, Ringleader of the Tormentors, is a savagely alive record and not just the next musical step from 2003's You Are The Quarry. In many ways it is a new sonic beginning. From the opening track, "I Will See You In Far Off Places" which utilizes sounds that will surely make the most ardent fan stop in their tracks through the pomp and circumstance of the first single "You Have Killed Me" and culminating with the final refrain of the epic "At Last I Am Born," Ringleader of [ read more ]

Following the breakup of the Smiths, Morrissey needed to prove that he was a viable artist without Johnny Marr, and Viva Hate fulfilled that goal with grace. Working with producer Stephen Street and guitarist Vini Reilly (of the Durutti Column), Morrissey doesn't drastically depart from the sound of Strangeways, Here We Come, offering a selection of 12 jangling guitar pop sounds. One major concession is the presence of synthesizers -- which is ironic, considering the Smiths' [ read more ]
