Album Notes & Community Reviews

On this tenth studio album, Morrissey delivers sardonic critiques of politics, war, and modern hypocrisy, wrapping moral outrage inside sly melodies and theatrical disdain. Its release was quite turbulent, as due to disagreements with his record label Harvest, the album would be dropped only three weeks after its release and it has not returned to streaming services ever since.
