Record of the Week: Morrissey 'Years of Refusal'



The first title for the album of the week this year will be awarded to Morrissey. Nothing groundbreaking but it is hard to be disappointed by this ex-Smiths frontman. The long awaited new album entitled 'Years of Refusal' has been canned as early as December 2007 and many stories abound to find an explanation to its late release. The fact is that the whole album has already leaked all over the internet but will only be officially released on the 16th of February 2009. That's a long wait for any fan who will already have listened to all the tracks hundred of times as a loop before the record is even officially released. Sales will probably harmed in the process so I will not be pointing you to any particular website illegally offering the whole thing for download and will simply ask you to bookmark the 16th of February in your calendar as a reminder to go and buy the real thing.

ps: The first single to be issued is by far the highlight of the whole project: "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris"
