On 4 May 2009, a newly remastered special edition of ''Maladjusted'' was released. Controversially, Morrissey chose to omit two of the album's original tracks, "[[Papa Jack]]" and "[[Roy's Keen]]", and include the extra tracks "[[Lost]]", "[[Heir Apparent]]", "[[The Edges Are No Longer Parallel]]", "[[This Is Not Your Country]]", "[[I Can Have Both]]" and "[[Now I Am A Was]]". "[[Sorrow Will Come In The End]]" was also restored from the original US release and the running order was rearranged to accommodate these changes. The album artwork was completely redesigned, with a Pat Pope photo taken in 1997. | |||

Maladjusted (stylised as “Maladjusted” in all caps) is the sixth studio album by English singer Morrissey, released on 11 August 1997 by Island Records. On release, the album received a lukewarm reception from fans and critics alike, and was Morrissey's last studio album for seven years, until 2004's You Are the Quarry.
