Taken from forthcoming
album ‘You
Are the Quarry’, released May 17th through Attack Records,
Irish Blood, English heart manages to combine socio-political
thoughts ‘I’ve been dreaming of a time when to
be English is not to be baneful / To be standing by the flag
not feeling shameful / Racist or partial’ with an energetic
accompaniment and, standing at little over two minutes, leaves
you wanting more with a tantalisingly abrupt ending.
The former pin-up
is going to be busy over the summer, his homecoming May
gig sold out in under an hour,
he is confirmed to play Glastonbury and America’s travelling
carnival Loolapolosa and he is curating the celebration of
alternative arts that is the Meltdown festival.
The Morrissey bandwagon is well and
truly rolling once again and rightly so. You could do a
lot worse than to jump on it.
