Roger Joseph Manning Jr ( Jellyfish, Air, Beck) New Album - kittyradio.com forums Producer Jerry Finn and I have had a long fun filled history together in Punk Pop heaven with group's like Blink 182 and found ourselves both being invited back for our second Morrissey album. I think fans will be pleasantly surprised by this new solo offering. It was all tracked live which added a great punk, garage, DIY urgency to the tracks. I am so used to recording keyboards in the more traditional overdub scenario that being asked to invent parts "on the fly" and track with the band while Morrissey sang live was a very refreshing and challenging experience.

Why isn't Mike Farrell on keys?
I guess there will be no symphonic songs like Never Played Symphonies...The songs will nonetheless sound much more alive than recent efforts. I can't wait to hear it...I want it to come out now! Something is Squeezing My Skull!

Now I find it interesting that Morrissey is choosing this 'punk' sound for his upcoming album.
Let's just hope for the best.

I actually liked him. He added a lot to the live shows and thought his 2 contributions (at last i am born & sweetie-pie) were, aside from pigsty, the best tracks from the ROTT recordings since they were a bit different. oh well!

When there are attempts at redirection, they come across as meager, or superfluous.
I predict that it will be a predominantly modern sounding, power chord slog with a few clumsy attempts at experimentation.
The question remains, however, as to how many more poorly conceived albums Morrissey can produce before he alienates all but the truly psychotic elements of his fanbase? You know, the cultists who buy his music simply because his fifteen year old face is slapped on the packaging.

This is an area that Moz rarely does but sounds amazing when he does. Now get Rick Rubin or Ross Robinson producing!!

Hmmm, ‘punk pop heaven’ is that really what he thinks he has been working on? To use the P word for a bunch of clowns like Gap endorsed Blink 182 is beyond tragic. I wonder if this guy has ever listened to The Clash, Bad Brains or even The Buzzcocks. Interesting how Moz is picky about whom he shares his door bus with, but when it comes to actually recording one of his records, he couldn’t care less. Finn’s production on Quarry was absolutely vile – a hideous LA rock sheen complete with naff sound effects. It made what few good songs there were frankly unlistenable. Let’s face it folks, Moz is in a career nose dive: His stupefying U.S tour, lame releases, cancelled shows and lyrics he would have dismissed ten years ago. I can’t see Jerry Finn giving him the kiss of life. The best we can hope for is our Moz fronting er … Green Day. There is no sense of adventure or daring with Moz these days, the man has become a caricature of himself, all empty posturing and vacant asides. It is worse than seeing Elvis put on the pounds and ghost walk through 10,000 movies. What happened people? Can it really be that he has nothing to say anymore? Has his wealth robbed him of his hunger … his creativity? The man is destroying himself and he is deluded if he thinks some of us haven’t noticed. I never thought Moz would give up on the miracle of pop – I thought he truly believed in its unique power to liberate, comfort and energize. But no more, pop for Moz is Jerry Finn and the corresponding bank balance. How monumentally rubbish is that?

Why can he not see that he has become the indie phil collins?
It could have been so different.
Morrissey, you are an idiot.
Final warning. Bin this SHIT and create something majestic and brave.
Or face what you have become honestly and completely - which is bland and unintelligent.
