Mozzer's tenth and latest album release...
geez, I know guy invented "emo" but he's still depressing after thirty plus years!...
depressing but enjoyably good, and witty with his words like Oscar Wilde, must be a homosexual thing?!...
anyway, album contains all his usual sounds, moans and depressing lyrics, but I like it...
a lot of social conscience/political songs on here, which is the Morrissey way...
best track for me is "Neal Cassidy drops dead", for those who don't know, Cassidy played a huge part in the
'beat generation'/"counter culture" thingy of the 1950s/60, he was English but moved to the US with his wife and quickly became
friends with Allen Ginsberg amongst others, he had an on/off sexual relationship with Ginsberg until he died in the late 1960s...
sorry, just a bit of history on the guy becuase you might well otherwise say "who the hell is NC?"...
all up though, a very good album, unusual to see an artist over thirty years into a career still bringing out quality material...
and how does he keep thinking up those interesting song titles year in, year out????
