Details of the newly completed album 'Without Music the World Dies', plus news that Capitol Records has terminated their contract with Morrissey.

It was originally going to have 12 songs?

Did it say that somewhere?

Good news! But only 4 Alain songs? 3 by Gustavo Manzur, Morrissey's weakest collaborator? Jesse is occasionally brilliant so I wont complain about him. Suspicious Minds? Who needs to hear that again?

 

[marred]

Elvis wrote maybe 7 songs. I wish he had written more.

Seven was enough.

 

[marred]

Morrissey fans should be pissed off right now.

When aren't you guys pissed off?

 

[skull]

Did it say that somewhere?

Yes. I remember it was originally 12 songs.

I don’t even feel excited about this. How long ago was it that we first heard that ‘Bonfire’ had been recorded? 3 years ago now? All this is irrelevant until he either decides to self-release or finds a label that he can get along with long enough to actually release an album.

I remember the posts on here back in the mid 2000s when Quarry and Ringleader were announced.

Morrissey was signed to a record label with which, at the time, he had a productive and harmonious relationship. So there was no jeopardy that the albums somehow wouldn't be released.

We had proper, professional artwork. We had intriguing song titles. We knew the albums would do well in the charts, and that there would be all manner of TV, radio and festival appearances to look forward to.

Those days are gone.

What we have now is a message basically stating "yeah, so I've written and recorded some songs, maybe you'll get to hear them one day, maybe you won't".

It's just all so sad.

If we take Morrissey at his word and believe that he really has been treated like shit by a string of record labels over the years, then why does he continue to live in this alternate universe in which self releasing music isn't a thing? Even poor, part time musicians can self release. Morrissey has been a professional recording artist for 40 years, is a very wealthy man and has a massive worldwide fanbase, even after the, shall we say, shenanigans in recent years.

Why does he continue to simp for an industry that he clearly doesn't believe values him?

Yes. I remember it was originally 12 songs.

Maybe we'll get some proper b-sides.

Maybe it's just the disappointment, but I'm still in Bonfire phase... I like those songs and I don't care much for the new ones yet. Of course it is just the moment.
There seems to be some Paris in Without Music.

@Famous when dead, can you please compile the best live audio recordings of the Bonfire songs played live, create a nice cover for it and we'll at least have a live EP version?

He can use this cover, just change the title

 

[Young And Alive]

"The 10-track album has been described by Jesse Tobias as 'a lightning strike.' " already has FiDo quality.

I don't doubt the songs are good.

But getting a review from, you know, one of the guys involved in creating it probably isn't very reliable.

"The Room? It's fab!"

[Amy]

Quite possibly some of the worst Moz song titles I've ever read.

Yeah, I still want to hear the rest of it as well.

Couldn't really give a toss about Sure Enough..., though.

Yes please. And add the rest of the BOT songs that he will debut next month

You haven't even heard the new songs.....

 

[Riordan]

It's amazing the things you guys find to whine about. A talent, really.

 

[Johnnie Ray]

100% agree. Do BOT and WMTWD in their entirety.

Hard pass.

 

[skull]

You haven't even heard the new songs.....

I am sure I will love them, of course, as I love almost all his songs. And I am sure they will be fantastic: I feel the band and Morrissey are in full and good creative shape. It is just me today: I just want Bonfire in my car

 

[klaus]

oooh two albums coming our way soon (i hope). should we start a gofundme for him?

he is an artiste!
