Morrissey – Years of Refusal

Morrissey’s latest album is a frantic whirlwind of passion – the music is tight and the vocals are intense and soaring, and it just sounds like people were killed and maimed to make this record; it is bitter and fervid from beginning to end…check out the pseudo-old-West feel of “When I Last Spoke to Carol” and the tongue-in-cheek rage of “Something Is Squeezing My Skull.”
