It's Morrissey's first album in over five years and marks his return to Sire Records. The album reunites Morrissey with producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Strokes, The White Stripes, Weezer, My Morning Jacket) as he returns to Studio La Fabrique in the Saint-Rémy-de-Provence region of Southern France. With poetic and provocative lyrics, evocatively unpredictable instrumentation, and a title that can be read as an explicit call for unvarnished truth and expression, the 12-song set is poised to further cement Morrissey status as one of the most acclaimed and potent voices of the last four decades.
