Alain Whyte gives 'Morrissey and Wine' podcast sneak peek at new Moz album

Alain Whyte, Moz's most prolific songwriter, appears on the latest episode of the 'Morrissey and Wine' podcast - out today. He reveals that the as-yet-unheard album 'Without Music The World Dies' has a 70s sound, 'Suspicious Minds' on the track listing is indeed a cover, which he says sounds great, and he tells us that Notre-Dame had extra lyrics which were cut out - plus plenty of other tidbits and stories.

We've also got Nanny Val back to react to 'The Operation', the ten-question trivia quiz returns and hosts Chris and George dissect the lyrics of one of Alain's tracks - 'Life is a Pigsty' from 'Ringleader of the Tormentors'.

Cheers everyone!

Does the podcast mention if new Moz albums have a release date? Cos that's all I care about.

Yes, the 35th of Never, 1985

Not so much a sneak peak as yet another tease. Hearing even a few seconds would be a treat. Hearing a release date for either of the TWO finished lps would be a miracle. Neither will be released in 2024

Let's not forget Bowie cover's of "I Know it's Gonna Happen Someday" on his album "Black Tie White Noise"

I’m thinking it will be released eventually or maybe someday.

Nite Flights is the gem.

He talks about The Edges Are No Longer Parallel being his favourite Moz composition. It's a great song. One of my favourite Moz tracks too.
Alain also asks out loud the obvious question - I don't know why he doesn't just self release stuff to be honest. It would probably be much more profitable for him.
We are all wondering that, Alain.

I know it's gonna happen some day ....

More profitable but less prestigious for a man who admittedly lives out of time.

Nice to hear Alain talk so positively about the new album, who knows he might get the chance to tour it in due time.

Well, they did play Without Music... when they played Ireland last year

Looking forward to the setlist for the Modern English tour in a few days

Nite Flights is the gem.

his live versions of it are better. Though none beat the original.

70’s music ….

 

[gordyboy9]

alains memory is as vivid as dirk blaggards.

It’s Alain because his mum is French.

When exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone

 

[Grim Reaper]

I feel it's more about there being nobody to blame and complain about when sales don't meet his expectations etc.

I thought he would be desperate at this point just to get the damn thing released.

As soon as I saw Alain release the unreleased lockdown session of TEANLP I wondered if like last time he will then appear back in the band for the next show. But I guess it would mean Carmen stepping out?
