Need the new album now!

I heard the track and i liked it if the album is as good as "Years of refusal", i'll say we have another winner, i also looked for another live recording on Youtube:



Excited, can't wait to see him in my hometown!

[october_midnight]

Apparently the show last night was cut short when stage-rushing fans knocked him over?

Happens in the first clip in the article.

Can someone explain the hatred toward Kill Uncle? I've listened to it twice now (after avoiding it for a long time due to many people telling me it's garbage), and I don't really understand the hate.

Haha, yes indeed! Ironic, too, was that he got to the line of "And before you know goodbye will be farewe--" and off he went.

Video, high quality:





Also, full versions of new songs:

It sounds a little "light" and the songs aren't of the best quality, though there are some great ones on there like Our Frank, Driving Your Girlfriend Home, Tony The Pony (just my opinion; I love that one), There's A Place In Hell For Me And My Friends (the live version from "At KROQ" is much better; full band and much faster/rockier, (I'm) The End Of The Family Line...

I think it's more just the stinkers like Asian Rut, Found Found Found and King Leer that people find off-putting. It still has its great moments though.

I love that title: Tour cancelled? lol

Moz plays Santa Ana tonight. Too bad I'm in class and it was sold out.

Morrissey allegedly refuses to perform in Santa Ana unless venue cancels other show - Consequence of Sound

Morrissey’s previous North American tours were derailed due to an array of health issues. Now, just two days into his latest jaunt, he’s found himself facing an entirely different obstacle: other bands.
Moz is due to play The Observatory in Santa Ana, CA this evening. Inside the venue is a second music space, dubbed The Constellation Room, where We Are Scientists and PAWS are scheduled to perform. According to PAWS’ Facebook page, Morrissey made an attempt to have their show canceled, “because he is playing in another room in the same venue and wishes for their to be no other artists performing in his vicinity.”
Update: PAWS has removed their Facebook post. According to the band’s publicist, the band will, in fact, perform tonight as originally planned.
Meanwhile, We Are Scientists said they’ve changed their set times to accommodate Morrissey’s “bedtime.” They expanded on the day’s events in an issued statement:

Chris from W.A.S. here. Happy to confirm that PAWS’ are back on. When it became apparent that Morrissey’s set was going to overlap with the WAS/PAWS bill, everybody really did agree that couldn’t work — even though the two venues are separated by a reasonably thick wall, Moz fans wouldn’t have been able to hear a lick of what they’d paid to see. Both bands on our bill play at nuclear volume, triumphant volume, and it goes right through walls. Putting on the two shows simultaneously would be like screening a mumblecore film and a Michael Bay movie in theaters divided by a cotton bed sheet. So we’ve moved the WAS/PAWS show a little later, which will probably come as a nice surprise to our fans, many of whom have had to set their alarms especially early this afternoon in order to make the show.

Read the entirety of PAWS’ original posting below:

Morrissey is currently trying to have our slot at tonights show in Santa Ana, California cancelled because he is playing in another room in the same venue and wishes for their to be no other artists performing in his vicinity.
This is an unbelievable act of complete and utter selfishness that should not be tolerated. This rich, has-been, ego maniac acting like a baby throwing toys from a pram. To satisfy his little power hungry brain. A complete disregard for others and a baffling lack of support/respect for young, hard working musicians.
People like this, with attitudes like this displays a classic example of why the music industry is still awash with disgusting garbage that should by now have been snuffed out. Pedestals, self righteous entitlement, disrespect and “competition”. Geez. It’s not like we’ve come all the way from Scotland to play for nothin’…
I’m just going to leave this photo and sentiment with you and we’ll report back with developments. We won’t go out without a fight!
What do you all think?

[Charmingly Miserable]

Wowsers!!! I don't know who these other bands are but I could totally believe that Moz would throw a fit.

[Ryan]

haha yep.

New song lyrics:



>>


World Peace Is None Of Your Business

World peace is none of your business
You must not tamper with arrangements
Work hard and sweetly pay your taxes
Never asking what for

Oh oh, you poor little fool
Oh oh, you fool

World peace is none of your business
Police will stun you with their stun guns
Or they’ll disable you with tasers
That’s what governments for

Oh oh, you poor little fool
Oh oh, you fool

World peace is none of your business
So would you kindly keep your nose out
The rich must profit and get richer
And the poor must stay poor

Oh oh, you poor little fool
Oh oh, you fool

Each time you vote you support the process
Each time you vote you support the process
Each time you vote you support the process
Brazil, Bahrain
Oh, Egypt, Ukraine
So many people in pain

No more you poor little fool
No more you fool

Earth Is The Loneliest Planet

Earth is the loneliest planet of all
Earth is the loneliest planet of all

Day after day you say “one day, one day”
Day after day you say “one day, one day”
But you’re in the wrong place and you’ve got the wrong face
And humans are not really very humane
And Earth is the loneliest planet of all

Earth is the loneliest planet of all
Live with a lowness that no one else knows
Time after time you say “next time, next time”
Time after time you say “next time, next time”
But you fail as a woman and you lose as a man; we do what we can
And Earth is the cruelest place you will never understand

But you're in the wrong skin
But the skin that you're in is safer
Let it begin
And Earth is the loneliest planet of all

Earth is the loneliest planet of all
Earth is the loneliest planet of all

Day after day you say “one day, one day”
Day after day you say “one day, one day”
And there's always a reason why you're refused
They always blame "you, you, you"

The Bullfighter Dies

Mad in Madrid
Ill in Seville
Lonely in Barcelona
Then someone tells you and you cheer

Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies
And nobody cries
Nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive

Gaga in Málaga
No mercy in Murcia
Mental in Valencia
Then someone tells you and you cheer

Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies
Hooray, hooray
The bullfighter dies
And nobody cries
Nobody cries
Because we all want the bull to survive

Good set list. If I had someone to go with, last night or tonight are the dates I would have gone too.

[october_midnight]

Wow that's fucked about Moz doing that. I mean, I get it, he's an egomaniac, but still...I'd think that he's smart enough to know that a lot of people think that about him, so maybe it'd be in your best interest to avoid shit like that. I love the guy, but there's no boundary...if you're an artist I love but you act like a prick, I hope someone calls you out for the prick you're being.

UPDATE 5:00PM:

Morrissey Denies Allegations That He Demanded Cancellation of Show Taking Place at Same Time as His in Nearby Venue - Pitchfork


Update: A representative for Morrissey says: "Morrissey had nothing to do with this. As long as there was no sound bleed, Morrissey was completely fine with another show going on inside the same complex."




Read this fully. Morrissey's tour manager acting like an arsehole, according to the band, and a six-figure sum deposited with Moz, according to the promoter. It's all a little odd.


Morrissey and PAWS Shows Go on Despite Alleged Cancellation Threats - Spin
But Scottish band claims further drama involving the Smiths singer's camp


Excerpt:


According to PAWS, as news of the earlier Facebook post spread, the promoter for Morrisey's show called saying that Morrissey might cancel and this would horrible for the venue. So the band took yesterday's post down. They somehow ended up getting their set rescheduled to just after Moz's ...

I agree, but I think the venue has to admit some wrongdoing on their end as well. While We Are Scientists were playing in a smaller room, the venue had to have known some primadonna shit was going to happen, whether it be from Moz or his own camp. At this point it's not surprising, what's more surprising is that We Are Scientists are still around.

I'm seeing him in two weeks again in Austin, does he still have the same backing band from two years ago? That drummer was incredible.

Ugh. I'm kinda mad at myself for not going last night. I around 2 in the afternoon yesterday, Ticketmaster released some tickets. I thought about going but A) I didn't want to go alone (story of my life) B) I didn't want to make the 2 hour drive to LA and 3) I was stuck doing homework.

The Smiths made an overdue appearance in my music library recently. Im enjoying the self titled album. Very much in line with a musical trajectory ive been exploring lately.

For some reason the other albums havent quite jived on me yet, odd because they were released in close proximity.... Right?

Is it weird that after stumbling upon the Smiths casually im put off by the aggressive commercialism I find in this thrwad in regards to Morrissey? Im still unfamiliar with his solo work, but there seems like a whole shit load of ego there.
