Album Review: Morrissey World Peace Is None Of Your Business

Chris Familton

"This is right up there with the best of his solo albums."

More Morrissey Morrissey

Always mildly controversial, when a new Morrissey album rolls around it serves as a timely reminder of his ability as singer and lyricist.

He sticks firmly to the grand indie-pop/glam rock’n’roll template he mastered decades ago but now sounds more stately and controlled, with flashes of Spanish guitar, horns and subtle electronica. His lyrics are as cutting, literary and humorous as ever with titles like Kick The Bride Down The Aisle. Kiss Me A Lot and Oboe Concerto in particular ensure this is right up there with the best of his solo albums.
